This video is a beginning to intermediate printmaking demonstration of a collagraph created on scrap mat board (You can get the supply lists here: bit.ly/CollagraphSupplyList), printed in a single color. Several prints from the edition were then hand colored with watercolor, colored pencil, charcoal and oil pastel.

For a subject, select something with simple lines and curves. Example: a plain coffee cup with a few tulips in it would work well... but a cut-crystal vase of daisies might be a bit too much to carve, at first. :)
