To make collagraph prints I
drew onto card and added PVA glue to the parts of the drawing that I wanted to
print. I then poured carborundum over the glue and left this to dry (I did
these stages on the 7th of February 2014). Once dry, I varnished the
piece four times. I then produced prints from it on the 24th of
February and today using a hydraulic press. I prefer the other printing methods
that I have tried to collagraph printing because collagraph prints are not as detailed
and they produce prints in just two colours; this combination has made the
subject of my prints less recognisable. Because of this, I have included the photo
that I worked from below as well as one of my collagraph prints above.
