Etching is one of the oldest and most satisfying forms of printmaking and in the hands of a expert can deliver intricacies of line and tone unrivalled by any other printing process.
Etchings are the prints produced by etching an image on a copper or zinc plate, using acid, filling the textures of the image with ink and then printing it on to paper by running it through a heavy press
WATCHBELL STREET, RYE
View down the cobbles of Watchbell Street in Rye to the Hope and Anchor and Udimore in the distance. Watchbell Street was given its name because it was once the lookout across the bay to Camber Castle and the sea - for warnings of raids by the French!
