Carburundum grit aquatint collagraph, in 60 seconds! I love collagraph for the ability to make prints from trash--the technology is easy, leaving room to master subtleties of image making instead of focusing on complex chemistry. This is a process where you create a collagraph plate and print using evenly sized grit and wood glue. The glued down bits of grit grab onto and hold ink, and the glossy gloss releases it. It's a similar effect to aquatint, an etching process. The actual running through the press happens off screen. I haven't done this process in years, so it was fun to get back to it. I made this to teach someone and the finished video is a bit longer, but here's a version that fits in a shorter format
