Mixed-Media Collagraph Prints by Vicky Oldfield

Mixed-Media Collagraph Prints by Vicky Oldfield

This practical and well-illustrated book, by printmaker Vicky Oldfield, gives a full account of how to make bold, dynamic collagraph prints. It explains a range of techniques from drypoint to collagraph, as well as viscosity printing and mixed media. Packed with finished examples, it also celebrates printmaking as an art form in itself, not just as a process for producing multiples, and encourages the artist to find their own distinct style. The book provides inspiration to achieve vibrant textures and exciting surface effects and there are practical tips to encourage you to experiment and be playful in your printmaking.

Collagraph is a very accessible way into printmaking as it doesn’t require expensive materials to make. A sheet of cardboard, such as our Environmount or Greyboard will be perfect.
