Making Unique Collage Papers For Collagraphs (Part 1)

In this video I delve into the art of transforming ordinary papers into stunning collage sheets for collagraphy.
I'll show you a variety of techniques to create unique, abstract patterns using everyday materials like A4 label sheets, gloss acrylic medium, and DIY fillers. Watch as I experiment with textures and mediums, from matte finishes to heavy body gels, to craft collage papers that are not just visually appealing but also perfect for calligraphy.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, this video offers a wealth of artistic insights and tips.
