Hardground


An acid-resistant compound that is heated to become liquid, applied to a warm etching plate, and rolled to a thin, even coating. When the coated plate is cooled, a hardground is formed. Etching needles or a variety of other metal instruments can be used to cut through the ground to expose the metal for etching.
handmade paper. Paper that has been formed from pulp using a hand-held mold, matrix, or other device.


Lexan
A trade name for polycarbonate sheet.
liftground. An etching technique in which it is possible to draw and print in positive rather than in reverse. The process consists of drawing with pen or brush either on an aquatint ground or on a clean copper plate using a solution of sugar and India ink. After the solution is dry, the plate is thinly coated with an acid resist, dried and then immersed in a tray of warm water, which dissolves the sugar-ink mixture, thereby lifting the resist coating off the plate. The exposed drawing is then placed in an acid-bath and prepared for printing
