What are aquatint etchings? There is no aquatint machine. Each individual etching is painstakingly made using a complex process. This site is devoted to showing the process of making two etchings: Sbado de Gloria and San Teodoro. How long does it take to make one? It requires 3 master printers and an apprentice eight hours to ink five plates and print six aquatint etchings. Who is el seor? Seor Blas Jess Cascarrabias is our semi-retired, outspoken, keep-us- straight helper and conscience of RioBravoFineArt. Be sure to check out his opinions and diatribes. We will be adding further writings of el seor as they become available. |
