Press on Post 3

Im now building up the tones of the image with sugarlift.  This is a lovely textural effect made from a sugar mixture that you paint on the plate.  You add sugar and water and simmer till the sugar dissolves and stop just before it becomes toffee. Where you paint it is where the tone will go..... always a process of adding and subtracting with etching....thats what really creates those lovely effects...
