Health and environmental issues are increasingly important for artists. In this book, Mark Graver puts the case for non-toxic printmaking and then discusses the various technical factors (both materials and equipment) to take into account when etching with acrylic resists, making aquatints, etching in general, using drypoint, engraving, making mezzotints and collagraphs and using photopolymers as well as combining various printmaking techniques. There is also information on various inks and health and safety measures in the printing workshop. Illustrated in full cololur throughout, this book contains everything a printmaker needs to know about non-toxic printmaking.
