Morning Swim (2023)Etchings & engravings by Rebecca Denton

United by the thrill of wild swimming...

This is a handmade etching with aquatint where I have redrawn my sketch onto grounded zinc with an etching needle before dipping it in acid. The acid 'bites' into the exposed lines forming deep grooves to hold ink and the plate is inked up for every print in the edition, meaning each one is unique.

This will be wrapped in acid-free tissue, flat-packed between board and shipped signed and tracked within four days.

Any questions, please don't hesitate to ask!
