Re: solarplate images up on my website



susan, I don't think that would matter...all you would need the dots of paint for is the exposure.

Mark,

I'd thought about that too.  Printmakers are using spray cans of paint
to use as an easy "aquatint" for zinc or copper plates before etching
them with acids, however... I think it wouldn't work for polymer
plates because the water washout would undermine the dots of paint.
Maybe.  I think a trial is in order....
