The International Mezzotint Society (I.M.S.) was established in 1997 by Dr. A. David Crown. There are more than 80 members internationally. The primary objective is to share enthusiasm and information, and spread knowledge of the technique and its history, to other artists who may presently feel somewhat isolated.
