The long
collagraph plate worked - 6 prints and 6 ghosts. Unfortunately I forgot to
photograph any before I put them under weights to dry.
I’ve
finished the mock up for the other book I was thinking about, also using collagraphs.
It’s at the scrap paper and scribbles stage, so not very pretty.
But I did cut
and assemble the coloured ‘Twelve dancing princesses’ risograph prints. The
offset colour looks almost deliberate when you see them all standing together.
Congrats on getting 6 prints form your collagraph - I hope they dry to perfection! These dancing ladies look great and the overlapping colours work a treat.
ReplyDeleteThanks. It pleases me when a happy accident means the outcome is better than the original plan.
DeleteI know that feeling of doing lots but having nothing concrete to show for the effort but I know you will be producing some interesting pieces as you always do. The risographs look good. Must find out how to do that.
ReplyDeleteUsing the risograph is just like using a photocopier wtith advantage of being able to change the black for differnt single colours. The main disadvantage is you can get carried away with 'just one more try' and it ends up costing a fortune
