Etching
The metal engraving is a craft that she learned from famous artist M. Chirnoaga when she was only fourteen years old.
What characterizes her engraving technique is the glibness of her execution. If most are copying previous drawings on the metal plates, Alexandra Mas is drawing directly on it, with a uninhibited line. The emotion is direct, her drawings are alive.
