Also, I just had a thought: how about those aluminium 'tins' that chicken etc comes in? That'd be thicker than kitchen foil.

Nice explanatory video. But how do you clean your orange T-Shirt? And is it ANY fizzy drink, like Fanta, or does it HAVE to be a cola? I'm going to try this. Ta for the demo.
@medwayfineprintmakers94777 ай бұрын
The orange cloth is just cotton rags - you could wash it with detergent if you wanted to reuse them. Cola contains carbonic acid, but I've not tested other fizzy drinks. You can buy litmus strips cheaply and could do tests to see which the best fizzy drinks are. The cola definitely varies - sugar free vs normal cola, cheap vs branded. I can't remember all the different ones I've used now, but the one in the video is a supermarket own brand non-diet cola.

Wow - I love the idea of using a pasta machine to do small prints! I've actually got one, which I think I've used all of 2x for pasta. I have seen several videos using a Sizzex embossing machine to do intaglio and collagraph or other relief printing as a cost-effective way to print small sizes. Thanks for your detailed tutorial on this, and I think I'll have to give it a try, since I've already got all the other supplies.

I've been trying this using Caligo ink and it doesn't work, I wonder if you can use oil paint?
@medwayfineprintmakers9477 Жыл бұрын
Caligo isn't suitable for this technique, because although it contains oil - it's water soluble. The key thing in this process is the separation of oil and water. Go for an ink that can be cleaned up with oil or spirits. I'm not sure about oil paint, the consistency might be too fluid, but it might be worth a go.

Ta for this; some explanation of process principles might help; I presume regular not diet cola is better, being more acidic Also, a few close ups of the finished prints on your insta would also give some idea of texture/line quality possible with this process

@downtime86stars173 жыл бұрын
Depends on the kind of ink you use. Charbonnel Aqua Wash or Akua inks can be cleaned up with dishwashing liquid. Other printmaking inks have to be cleaned up with vegetable oils and/or solvents.

@@downtime86stars17 Yes you can just use a cheap vegetable oil, and get the last traces off with a natural solvent like Zest It for the last traces if you're being thorough.

i too, am enjoying the wood pigeon accompaniment! And all the birdsong. Have been doing a lot of these low-fi prints, in my case, using the tetra liner of organic green tea sachets. I should not mention the name, but starts with an S, for anyone who reads this. The idea to use them as printing plates was a revelation to me, since I have saved these for “something”, thinking of them most often as a form of rough silver leaf... Anyone who saves things for artmaking without needing to know the particulars or the whence it will all reveal itself, will relate, I am sure. I think I have a pasta machine in storage, from my years of working with polyform. I never actually used it, hope I saved it! For the moment, in lockdown, again, I won’t be visiting the storage. But as you say, maybe someone has an unused one... In any case, a good hand- or spoon burnish is also fine. And my inner voice keeps whispering, go out and find a good stone that wants to come home with you. I used to have many, but had to give them back to the earth when I seriously downsized. I love you approach, and Enjoyed this low key “visit.” Hello from Ontario, Canada. 🌷

what width does it need to be to get the plate through and is there a max length ?
@medwayfineprintmakers94773 жыл бұрын
Hi, it really depends on the pasta maker you have on width, but I'd go about a cm in from the edges. If you have long enough blankets you could get a really long artwork through there. It's hard to get straight though so there's probably a practical limit on that too.

How long will plate last and how many copies ca you pull from it?
@medwayfineprintmakers94773 жыл бұрын
I’ve printed about 30 from this type of plate without significant quality degradation. I only usually stop because I don’t want more than that though. Let me know if you get a longer run out of yours please. I haven’t really gone back to plates much after the first printing, other than after a week or so, so can’t advise you on that. I’d be interested to know too.

is alright to glue the foil down to stop the creasing?
@medwayfineprintmakers94773 жыл бұрын
That might be worth trying. Maybe using something like the high tack glue spray used for textile screen printing. You’d risk getting a slight texture from it coming through though. I find just using tape at the edges, getting the thickest foil you can find, and being gentle with it is enough to stop creasing.

Some "plastic" napkins are great for finishing the cleaning before the printing!

We really try to avoid plastic waste where possible. Most of the clean up stuff we use at the studio is donated rags or waste paper from other processes. I get excited when I find a use for something that stops it going to landfill. Do you mean those shiny paper napkins?
