Billy's Rainforest - Collagraph/Relief Print

This is a print, originally a collagraph, made with foam board, paper cut -
outs…and glue…all put on the board and then shallaced. However after a complete day in the print room all I had left to show was 5 OK prints. (In A1 Size)
The foam board was too soft to print what I wanted. So, there is never a dull print I say…I re-inked the board with Graphic Block Ink and rolled it up with a huge roller in the colour black.

Than I placed the board onto the press with the previous prints. So now I have a collagraph/relief print.... the result…was….five amazing prints…that once framed up and under glass are going to look mmmmmmm superb..! If I do say so myself! Yipea! Love that print room….Billy

    Fantastic work..
    I have not tried collagraph, but I will some day…the feeling here is very much like my Tulgey Wood painting, so I was drawn to it immediately….
