Aquatint Dot Screen Danish

*NEW AQUATINT DOT SCREENS – Much darker and intense than previous screens*

80% density 60 my (res. 2400 / 175 lines)

Minimum density in the bright areas 0,04
Maximum density of the black in the opaque areas 3,9-4

These Aquatint screens, also known as Stochastic screens, are printed on a high-resolution imagesetter film (produced especially for the use of continuous tone positives with photopolymer films and/or Toyobo Photopolymer Plates KM73). The screens produce deep blacks and delicate greys in the final print.

The Aquatint Screen Danish is a screen that has a dot pattern that is opaque. This pattern effectively simulates the random dot of a fine aquatint. Exposing the Aquatint Screen to a photosensitive plate will create an overall aquatint-like base.

Photogravure Instruction Manual by Henrik Bøegh

This is an invaluable instruction manual about photogravure using our Toyobo solar plates along with our Danish Aquatint Screens in a step-by-step guide through the entire process, from your first idea of making a photogravure to the final print. Along the way, Henrik discusses the importance of choosing the correct positive film, the most appropriate printer model and the significance of various UV light sources. In a separate chapter, the handmade positive for both intaglio printing and relief printing is discussed and the appendices address such matters as installing RIP software to make printing more accurate for Windows and Mac.

In this manual you will be guided through the following:
– How to make the perfect positive in Photoshop for printing on film or directly on the plate
– How to prepare the photopolymer plate for exposure and etching
– How to find the optimal UV exposure times of the aquatint screen and the digital positive
– How to etch the photopolymer plate in water
– How to harden, handle and print the photopolymer plate in black and white and in duotone

Lascaux Tusche Lift Solution

The Lascaux Tusche Lift Solution is for use in acrylic resist etching in conjunction with Lascaux Aquatint resist. It can also be used to make autographic positives for light sensitive printmaking processes in conjunction with Lascaux Tusche wash/spray. The method is similar to sugar-lift in traditional etching, and the marks made with Lascaux Tusche Lift Solution resembles classic sugar-lift marks. Lascaux Lift Solution can be cleaned from brushes, tools, bowls and surfaces with warm soapy water. 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. Shake well before use. Contains marbles.
