Intaglio Print of "Barney"
This stainless steel pendant was Bulino engraved with no intention of ever using it as a "plate" for printmaking. However, when an Emporia State University art student Michelle Parkman saw it, she was excited to see what could be done with such a small and highly detailed engraving (the actual pendant is only 1" wide). Michelle, an experienced intaglio print maker, used a warm black ink to produce the stunningly detailed print you see here.

If you look closely you can see engraver Chris DeCamillis' name backwards as it should appear in such a print. This example illustrates how natural it is for good metal engravers to create plates that make wonderful prints with the engraving skills they already have. However, a quality print depends on special printing expertise and the right equipment to bring out such fine detail.

If you would like more information on ESU's Fine Arts programs, visit their website at http://www.emporia.edu/art. And, if you are interested in learning this fine engraving technique, contact GRS for special Bulino classes.

Engraving was done with the following GRS products: GraverMach, Monarch handpiece, and X-7 gravers.
