Hello!

[@tinapetrovicz9741]

Thank you! I wasn't sure how to ink these plates as it is so fragile.

[@Handprinteduk]

Thanks for watching!

[@nininixx6458]

Thank you so much for the video, it was the most helpful one in all that I have watched! I usually make lino prints and am wondering if my ink can be used for this technique? I use Caligo Safe Wash.

[@Handprinteduk]

Yes, you can use Caligo Relief Ink for this technique. Ideally, you would use intaglio ink but you can use what you have

[@ClayExtrudingExpert]

Brilliant! Hermione, is that you? (Sorry, couldn’t resist. You’re totally charming.)

[@Gingercrafts76]

Could this be done on Fabric? with fabric paint? Amazing tutorial!

[@Handprinteduk]

I haven't tried it with fabric paint but I would imagine it would be too slippery. Fabric would be tricky as it won't dampen in the same way as paper. Worth a try though if you have the materials to hand!

[@youareamazingyesyou5880]

Hello, here is the link to the blog post - handprinted.co.uk/blogs/blog/printing-intaglio-without-a-press-tetra-pak-collagraph?_pos=3&_sid=5b162f364&_ss=r

[@lesliemilam9464]

Love this thank you! Question, do you need to re-ink for each print?

[@frankgross2149]

Hi, You mention that there's a blog post on how to do this without a press but I can't find the article - please link me to it

[@frankgross2149]

oh never mind I see you answered the same question for someone else below. thanks

[@rosierosie291]

I'm curious. How many prints would you expect to get from this method of printing?

[@Handprinteduk]

Up to 25, depending on how fragile the plate is and how you're inking.
