April Diamond
Continuing this year’s Birthstone Creation challenge, next up is April. This month’s birthstone is diamond. Thought to bring the wearer luck in relationships, this sparkly stone not only shines in different colors, but can also be found in different colors such as pink, yellow, and black. As with the previous months, the only requirement is that the creation be the same color as the stone. Check out our creations, and feel free to send your own to fanARTicmag@gmail. com along with your preferred name and a short intro!

Spotlight Intaglio
One of the two basic printmaking techniques, intaglio is the process of etching a desired picture into a plate, most commonly copper or steel. This process is opposite that of the second basic printmaking technique, relief, where the picture is raised from the surface. After etching, the plate is then coated with ink and wiped off so that the ink in the etched lines is all that’s left. After that, the image is ready to be pressed onto paper, t-shirts, etc. Intaglio printmaking itself consists of different techniques: engraving, drypoint, etching, aquatint, stipple, and mezzotint. For more information on intaglio, relief, or printmaking in general, check out artelino.com.
