Learn how to make your own collagraph plate from materials found around your home! What is collagraph printmaking? A collagraph is a collage of materials of various textures glued on to a printing plate; often thin wood or cardboard. The plate is inked up, and then printed on paper creating beautifully unique textured images. There’s a certain amount of unpredictability in the process, but that’s half the fun! Materials will be provided but you are encouraged to bring in your own items to include on your plate. Think about cool textured items you have around your house like lace, sequins, beans, tinfoil, etc. that you don’t mind incorporating into your art.
