  • Hey there!
    Collagraph is one of my favourite printmaking methods, and the joyful news is that you can practise it at home without a press! A great way to start is to create some mini test plates - these let you test out various textures and inks, without committing to a big ol' plate. You can also make them any shape you want - woohoo!
    📼 This is Part One - Making the Plates. To see how I get on printing the plates, head over to Part Two here:

    Thank you for the tip on using a gloss finish rather than matte!! I had no idea ❤

      Happy to help! 💛 In my prints, I've found the shinier I can make the surface the better, so glossy sealants just add that extra shiny and help the ink transfer off.
