I have a question. What did you use to get the different textures? My printmaking class is doing collagraphs at the moment and I'm really curious as to your texture techniques. We've played with just about everything we could find, things that we could get from the dollar tree or whatever we had at home. I just wonder what your textures are and how they were created.

In this piece I collaged paint and lacquer onto paper dry point card.

how do different papers affect the look of the print? And how do you do multiple colors while collagraphing? I'm wanting to try this method of printmaking but it seems so difficult and intimidating! Give me tips! Help!

Hot pressed paper works well for me, vellum is ideal. Colour..... most of my prints are À la poupée, some are stencilled and multi plated, some are hand coloured with watercolours. Best tip, is to experiment with the materials before creating a challenging image, or you will be discouraged if it looks like road kill. Find out how to make dark, mid and light tones.

Thanks so much for the reply!

~SNiPERseyes Jan 10, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Im interested in just how you went about building your plate. Did you etch first and build up various mediums over it or did you build up with mediums then etch or a mixture of both??

~JetJames Jan 10, 2013 Professional Traditional Artist

Its a combination of both, etching into the card, as well as the materials.

~SNiPERseyes Jan 10, 2013 Student Traditional Artist

Thanks again.
