Assignment:
Using the Collagraph process, compose a creative
landscape or cityscape.
This piece can be abstract or realistic, culturally inspired or
fantasy.
Whatever you choose, make sure that you have sketches
and research in your sketchbook.
Use various found materials to help you develop
your plate- these materials will be glued onto your
illustration board and than varnished to seal them
before inking
Materials: thin pieces of cardboard or oak tag,
raffia, string, yarn, pencil shavings, rice, leaves,
small dried flowers, reeds, burlap, sand, fine
meshed fabrics, netting, tin foil, embossed
wallpaper or other textured materials.
Anything will work as long as it
is not more than 1/8" high. If
you have objects that are higher
you will have trouble printing
properly.

All printing must be done on the blue
press. The black press is used for more
precision printing.
Make a series of at least 3 prints.
You can make more if you wish.
You can also change the look of each in the way that you ink it.
Ray Davenport
1 of your prints should be a blind print or embossing.
This is done before you begin using ink,
run the un-inked plate through the press with a damp piece of
paper.
