Comment by Carina on June 17, 2014 at 7:41am: Hi there! Yes it's a gum arabic transfer, also known as paper plate litography. It's a messy technique with mixed results. Interesting textures for sure. Good thing is you get a print that looks like an etching with using a black/white toner copy. The technique requires very high contrast images. I have used a gum arabic from the food industry. I'm not sure gum arabic from the art supply shop is good enough. Thanks for your kind comments :)
