This is what our plates looked like before we inked them, collages on signboard material, not more than 1/8 inch thickness.
A close up of my plate after inking. My collagraph plate was made with masking tape, knee hi hose, contact paper, acrylic medium, an exacto knife and paper glued onto sign board.
The whole plate after inking. L recognize a bit of an old linocut of yours?
Here is my "sample print" coming off the press. I was so pleased. Lots of textures and rich blacks. Hooray, it was a fun day at the collograph or collagraph workshop. Tomorrow we keep working on two new plates.
How is everyone else's weekend going?

My weekend has involved a little business, a little pleasure and a whole lot of spring cleaning fever...I guess the 51 degree temp set something off.
I love all the variations of black and grey in this print...nice.
