April - Collagraph

Designed and hand made by Denise Huddleston, on the Isle of Skye.

This is a contemporary, signed, original artwork in a Varied Edition of only 2.

The image is hand printed from a hand made collagraph plate.

I create my plates by engraving into thin wooden board. I then glue recycled materials to the board and form textures with plaster and carborundum. Once the plate is thoroughly dry, a coat of shellac or varnish is used to seal it. The following day, my collagraph plate is ready to print from.

Only a few images can be produced from each plate, before it degrades.

The image was carefully inked and printed in two stages onto Somerset Velvet printmaking paper using my etching press.

A few days later . . once the inks had dried . . I created a silkscreen and printed the birds in black water based inks.
