Collagraphs

      "My own eyes are not enough for me, I will see through those of others." C.S. Lewis  
                                                                                                                                                  Under my fingernails, circling the cuticles, is ink. Bone Black Etcher's Ink. My students printed collagraphs last week. I inked their plates- none of them were too keen about doing that step. Ink lasts. But then, I always have something on my hands. This year's printmaking classes have worked in linocut, woodcut, engraving (etching), monoprint, foamprint, screenprint and now collagraphy- the printing of textures from a plate of corrugated paper.

  1. I love the collographs! I've always been a huge fan of Rufino Tamayo's work. We are actually working on monoprints from acetate.
