Etching Sink in a print shop.

Etching Sink in a print shop.

The sink in a printmaking shop is hit with many harsh chemicals daily. In the etching process, different chemicals and acids are used on etching plates and sometimes the chemicals drip outside of the designated bins. The result of these materials building over time can produce a beautiful array of colors such as yellows, browns and deep reds.
