making collagraph print plates

Hi

Here I am working on a collagraph printing plate, cutting and making marks and patterns.

The next step is to varnish it before the first print. 
It takes a few steps to make a print plate, so I hope it will be fine.

I'll put it on my art site when I'm done, hopefully.

here is a print with leaves, it has to be framed later on.

Collagraph workshop

Yesterday I was at a very interesting workshop, it was about collagraph technique.

Waw, it was great and I had very much fun, even if there was a lot to try to remember :)

here is some pic's...

and here is a print I made, ta...da...

I can't wait to do more

I'm pretty excited about the process of combining paint and printing, I think I can get pretty interesting results this way.

Here is a new one, more to follow soon.

hi.

Now I jumped into teaching myself to make collagraf printing   ;)

First I made a small printplate, practice, practice, practice ...

So I made the first print on a collage I had lying around, it is quite ok I think.

I will work more on this type of work, it's exciting.

hope you like it, you can give it a try  :)
