Making a Collagraph - The 'House on the Crags'

Im so pleased to be able to show you some photos of my very first edition that I have been really busy creating this past couple of weeks. I have used a palette consisting of cadmium yellow and cobalt blue, mixing them to create the greens and reducing them with the transparent ink for lighter tones. The print was created from 2 plates that were inked and pressed separately.

Inspired by our local house on the crags:



Inking the plate and the ink palette.


A completed print. Im very pleased with the outcome and how the sky and fields flow into a point together towards the left side as they disappear into the distance.
