Curation Standard:

Use a medium graphite pencil to sign and number prints below the plate line. Write the edition number (e.g. "12 / 50") on the lower-left margin, the title in the center, and your signature/year on the lower-right margin.

Rates and formulas are derived from standard fine-art printmaking studio guides. Chemical formulations should always be verified under a test strip sequence first.
