The one day course will introduce you to the soft, subtle gradations of Mezzotint.

About

Working with a ready rocked black plate you will use a tool called a burnisher to smooth away indentations to create light and tone. This process produces beautifully rich black prints with a characteristic dark, smoky quality.
