The Collagraph Printmaking process continues to interest me as a printmaker.
I have been preparing material for a weekend workshop at Maldon, which begins on Saturday 22nd and goes until 24th March.
This Collagraph is one of the samples I will have at the workshop. The plate is made of natural grass, ripped card, wall papers and textured papers. The plate was sealed with a liquid Shellac mixture and when dried, the plate was inked up with water based AKUA intaglio inks on dampened Fabriano Rosapina printing paper and printed through the printing press.
I hope to feature in my next Blog entry, the prints produced & the printmakers themselves at work during this workshop.
