I inked up and printed all of the collagraph example pigeons!!! so many different textures and tones and all made with a bit of cardboard! I shall be...

Jenny Mccabe on Instagram: "Using packaging to make plates These are delicate and tricky to work with but with the abundance of designs of box construction it makes it so exciting!

Jenny Mccabe on Instagram: "I made a big Kingfisher collagraph plate today - no idea if it’s gonna print well - just really fancied going big I’m in the printroom tomorrow so I can text it out and see! The plate is made with simple cardboard, glue and varnish - Im hoping a big pop of colour will cheer the dark winter days I’m teaching shaped plate collagraphs this weekend @ironpressprintmaking i’m Lancaster - can’t wait to share ideas and play. #collagraph #collagraphprint #artwork #printma

* sold out * The new Great Blue Heron Collagraph has been such a joy to work on - I have a feeling there will be more studies of the Heron appearing soon as it’s such a great shape to work with - I have managed to get a very small edition of just 12 printed before the plate is too tired and falling apart so it keeps the prints special and rare. Now listed on my website (link in bio) Happy printmaking Jenny #collagraph #collagraphprint #artwork #printmaker #artwork #printmakersofinstagra...
