French Lesson!

Ok! So we all know the term mise en place for placing color onto the etching. Or was it mise au point? Either way, these terms actually mean to either "put in place" or "focus or clarify". Here are some other little phrases that use mise.
mise en scene- a production
mise en page- making up, composing
sauveur la mise a quelqu'un- to get someone out of a tight spot; AKA to save somebody's butt

In other news, I found a great website of aquatint etchings.
