Collagraph Print Making Workshop
Cardboard collagraphs are safe and easy to construct. The substrate can be incised, cut, peeled, and added to. The intaglio technique gives many possibilities of inking up, selective wiping, and adding colour.
Day 1: Designing a block. Use of the press to continually proof to develop the image.
Day 2: Finding the potential of the plate using chine colle, focal point, selective wiping, a la-poupee, hand colouring and possibly multi-plate printing.
