Intaglio Print
Years ago, any image printed made use of a plate engraved by hand.
Although technology has replaced such traditional printing methods in the commercial world,
making intaglio prints from your engravings is a great way to reproduce your work.
Even though this engraving was not cut with intaglio printing in mind, it printed
beautifully much like the Intaglio Print of “Barney the Bobcat”. Michelle Parkman, a
printmaking student and experienced intaglio printmaker from Emporia State University,
used a warm black ink to print this from an engraving by DeCamillis in stainless steel.
These prints can pick up amazingly fine details as shown by this Bulino style engraving of a duck.
Some engravers use prints to promote their work in metal; others purposely engrave with the printed
image as the final product for making art prints, greeting cards, etc.
Consider learning more about intaglio printing or look for a skilled printer in your area.
If you want to boost your engraving skills first, GRS Training Center offers several intermediate

Center website for more information
on courses and instructors.
Tools used for engraving original piece: GraverMach with Monarch handpiece, X-7 gravers.
