Dripping : Drip painting is a form of abstract art in which paint is dripped or poured onto the canvas.
Drip painting was however to find particular illustration in the work of the mid-twentieth century artist Jackson Pollock. Pollock found drip painting to his liking; later using the technique almost exclusively, he would make use of such unusual tools as sticks, hardened brushes and even basting syringes to create large and lively abstract works.
Engraving : intaglio technique in which a metal plate is manually incised with a burin, an engraving tool like a very fine chisel with a lozenge-shaped tip. The burin makes incisions into the metal at various angles and with varying pressure which dictates the quantity of ink the line can hold – hence variations in width and darkness when printed. The technique of engraving metal dates from classical antiquity as a method of decorating objects.
Etching art : engraving process with hollow in metal.
