This is a brief overview on how to make a drypoint from a sheet of plexiglass, inking it in the 'a la poupee' method, so you can print multiple colors from one pass through the press.

(NOTE: in other parts of the globe, plexiglass is called acrylic plate, optix, lexan, perspex, plexi, or polycarbonate, etc.)

If you need help creating titles for your art, check out this effective, speedy online course I've assembled to share tips and tricks harvested from two decades of titling watercolor paintings and printmaking: bit.ly/titlemyart
