This is an original hand-pulled drypoint Tetra-Pak print. Limited edition of 3 prints.
Collagraph is a versatile printmaking technique where textures are built up on a plate, creating beautiful depth. This type of collagraph is made using the inside of recycled TetraPaks (e.g. long life milk cartons). The surface of the tetrapak is manipulated by means of tearing, sanding, drypoint and other processes to create the desired texture. Ink is applied to the surface, and the image is pressed onto paper using a printing press. The mark making process is a detailed and time consuming process, and requires a high level of attention and patience.
Each sheet is hand torn to the required size.
Due to the nature of the handmade process, each print is unique and will have slight variations.
Paper Size: 27.5cm x 19cm
Image Size: 19cm x 11cm (approx)
Ink: Sakura Printmaking Ink
Paper: Somerset Velvet Printmaking Paper 250gsm
Each print is signed and numbered in pencil on the front, near the bottom of the paper.
On the back, the print is stamped, titled and signed by me in the bottom left hand corner.
All prints are unframed. Packaging: Your print will be packaged within a plastic sleeve with acid free backing board. The print will be shipped in a rigid mailer.
Behind the Price Tag: Each of my hand-pulled prints is an original artwork - etched, carved, and printed by hand using traditional printmaking methods. There’s no digital reproduction here, just time, skill, and many quiet hours in the studio. These works are printed in small editions, signed, and made to last. My pricing reflects the labour, materials, and care involved - as well as my goal to make a sustainable living from my creative work. It’s easy to spend without hesitation on mass-produced items. This is something different: slow, personal, and created with intention.
