My latest experiment in scratching! ‘Track to Ding Dong Mine’. Mirror board drypoint/collagraph using an @openpressproject postcard printing press. It’s taking me a while to get to grips with the intaglio process. It’s much messier and more variable than lino printing, but I quite like the element of unpredictability. I just need to get a bit better at aligning them properly and not getting ink everywhere🫣 #etchingpress #miniprint #tinmine #cornwallwalks #printmakingart #printmakingpro...
Verified POP Member @shapesbysal experimenting with mini drypoint prints, showcasing a beautiful fusion of sustainability and creativity! Using old plastic cards from @cardronanz, Sal has reimagined these discarded materials as tools for artistic expression. Drypoint etching is an intaglio printmaking process where designs are scratched or engraved onto a surface, in this case, repurposed plastic cards, instead of traditional metal plates. The etched lines hold ink, which is transferred onto...
If you’ve ever wanted to try intaglio printmaking but don’t have access to a traditional press, don’t worry—your kitchen might just have the answer! A simple pasta machine can be repurposed as a small-scale printing press, perfect for printing collagraphs and drypoints at home. check my blog & youtube page for the long form tutorial in how to print with a pasta machine (link in bio) #collagraph #collagraphprint #artwork #printmaker #artwork #printmakersofinstagram #printmaker #print #je...
This collagraph plate was worth all the effort
I’ve been working on some new exciting techniques combining innovative plate making with some exciting chine collè techniques, intaglio and mono printing to create these abstract landscapes.

A new collagraph! I’m working on a collection for display at Rheged print show in the new year and making these large collagraph birds flying in and out of the frames - this is one of my favourite birds the European Jay. Made with card and glue and varnish and printed with intaglio inks on my Gunnings Etching press. I will release some of these prints in the new year once I have finished the collection and printed the editions. #collagraph #collagraphprint #artwork #printmaker #artwork #pr...
