Here is how it printed. drive.google.com/file/d/1IOVBk2bVzs5ROftkhoFANNkrmYVnisJs/view I made this video for my online printmaking students in the pandemic. The video is a little unfinished.
A collagraph is generally a matrix that is made out of cardboard and found material. While a mono print is more like a painting that is then printed through the press. The mono print is a one off while a collagraph can be editioned.
For this I used oil based printmaking ink. I don't remember exactly what I used in this video since it was print at home pandemic times. But my favorite black in is Portland Cool Black by Gamblin. I find etching inks print relief just fine and then I can use one ink for more printmaking processes. Clean by scraping as much as you can onto old newspaper wiping down with some veg oil and follow up with a household degreaser. Or if you ventilation is good a little gamsol will clean it up faster.
Here is how it printed. It ended up printing much better relief than intaglio. Here is a link to the photo! drive.google.com/file/d/1IOVBk2bVzs5ROftkhoFANNkrmYVnisJs/view?usp=sharing
This was an interesting diy home version of collography, thank you! (I think you rushed those stripes. The angle was wrong if depicting a horizontal surface from that angle. I see mistakes like this alot on YT and guessing the videocamera tends to rush decisions.) Nevertheless good job with simple materials and techniques! 🙏❤️
I agree, I feel like I was more interested in showing my students the technique with a range of materials and making it feel less intimidating. The design... well it was full lockdown pandemic at the time so I wasn't exactly in the ideal frame of mind lol.

Lovely to see the results is a good thing too ..
I think you should have found a way to show the final print. We felt cheated to go all the way through and not see the result.

What is the difference between Collagraph Print and mono prints
A collagraph is generally a matrix that is made out of cardboard and found material. While a mono print is more like a painting that is then printed through the press. The mono print is a one off while a collagraph can be editioned.
Hi, did you make a video to show how this plate printed? I so enjoyed watching the process and would like to see the end result. Carol UK
Hi Carol. I was just learning how to make videos >_< there is a link to how it printed in the comments.
Interested in the printing is it going to happen.
Can you tell me what ink/paint you used for printing?

Where can I see the print from this plate, please? I was hoping to see it at the end of the video but... not.

@@hannahskoonberg oh that's come out wonderfully! very matisse. thanks for sharing!
Why did you not show the actual print?
That would have been most useful to understanding the techniques on the plate.
I posted the final image in the description. I accidentally cut the video short T_T still learning how to make videos.
@@hannahskoonberg thx. The print came out great!
