Inked daisy Collagraph

I am trying out the new press @ The Gallery Dereham
in readiness for the new printing courses which will be running shortly.
Play time at the moment to see what the little press and we can do.
Here is the Daisy collagraph after it printed 5 little prints.
I will be teaching 'Printing Little Gems',
from September.
I really love the collagraph plates too!
I think I can see a lots more variations off this collagraph.

Daisy Collagraph

My little collagraph of daisy's is 2.5" by 5"
and I made it this afternoon.
It consists of card,torn paper,net,sequins and threads from the bin!
It was dried very quickly in the heat of the sun and a blast with a heat gun.
I liked the plates to look as good as the prints.
Setting up the press gave me a great chance to try out the waterbased inks.
