Aquatint is a type of etching that uses powdered resin that stops the acid from eating away at the surface, creating a tonal effect. Correct answer: B

This intaglio printmaking technique is used by printmakers to achieve a broad range of tonal values. The technique includes the following: grains of rosin are dusted onto a plate, then melted slightly, so that the rosin can create tiny islands for acid to bite around.
