D Deboss The act of pressing and image or seal into paper so it is indented and visible below the paper's surface. This is also referred to as tooling.
Degas, Edgar A French artist best known for his paintings of ballet dancers, created in the Impressionist style (though he preferred "realism"). (1834-1917)
Density In printing, density may refer to one of three things: 1) Ink - the thickness of the ink on the paper 2) Color - a color's ability to absorb reflected light, or prevent its emission 3) Paper - how loosely or tightly the fibers of the paper are woven together.
Diptych An artistic image created on two separate panels that are hinged in the middle, so to be self-standing. Contemporary art that is divided onto two canvas or framed wall-hanging panels my be considered a Diptych as well.
Drypoint Printmaking A type of engraving, drypoint plates are created using a sharp point instead of a v-shaped tool in traditional engraving. The scratching of the tool leaves rough edges on the markings, which results in a print with soft or even blurry lines. The pressure of the printing press flattens these rough edges quickly, so most drypoint plates are used only for small print runs.
Dye Sublimation Sublimation is a process where an image can be printed onto transfer paper using dye-based inks and then with heat and pressure become transferred into the substrate. Dye sublimation on hard surface surfaces is possible if the surfaces have been coated. Instead of printing images directly on a surface, which may scratch easily, the image is infused into the coating to provide permanent protection and durability.
