Collagraphs, patience and the studio

More printmaking using collagraphs -  cardboard, papers and mixed media fixed to a cardboard base and  shellaced or otherwise moisture proofed once the glue has dried. Another coat after about 24 hours and another patience-testing time to dry before printing begins. The oil based ink takes  24 - 36 hours to really dry properly.  So it's another beautiful day for working in the studio - the shade from the Moreton Bay Ash is a gift in the humidity.
