How to Drypoint Etch Sharks into Acrylic Plexiglass

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water...

Watch how the drypoint intaglio printing technique can be done at home at minimal cost and using only a few tools to make this shark print. The only things you need are a sheet of plastic, a scratching tool, ink, and paper. A printing press can be pretty affordable compared to years ago. I got mine on Amazon. It will give you the best result, but you can also use a wooden spoon to push the paper into the etching plate and get a pretty good result.
