first I made the portrait with red gouache and sugar on to the metal, then covered it with hard base then washed the gouache, then the acid. Though I had to retouch some parts where the hard base had washed off

this is my first print in this technique. i like the way the acid made the lines on the metal, i think i'll be doing more of these in the future, meanhile i'll keep on learning and doing exercises, like this one, but in other techniques new to me.
