The printmaking process starts with Betsy painting on the plate with oil-based inks.

Here you can see the oil-based ink palette, brushes and the light box.

Printer Michael McCabe lays down a glaze over the solar plate printed background.

Michael carefully removes the plate after running it through the press.

Michael applies the landscape plate to background.

A golden glaze of ink is applied.

TA-DAH! The print is finished.

After a morning of making prints, we take a lunch break with Michael McCabe, Carol Anthony and Carolyn Martin and Henry!
