Lascaux Tusche Soft Ground Effect

The Lascaux Tusche Soft Ground Effect is a slow drying viscous tusche has been designed to produce effects similar to soft ground in traditional etching. Using this method, soft non-printing drawings may be made and impressions of fabric, leaves, feathers and other collage materials may be taken. The tusche can also be used for a broad range of painted marks and can be drawn into with tools. The diluted tusche dries to create granular washes. Dry marks can be re-wet and altered. The Lascaux range are water soluble painting materials that create positives for light-sensitive printmaking processes. This range can be used in screen printing, acrylic resist etching, solar plate printing and traditional printmaking methods.
