The art of collography was invented during the early part of the 20th century. This revolutionary technique involved a rigid surface collaged with materials which is inked with pigment and used to print onto paper or another material using a printing press.
“*Your item will be professionally handled by a picture framer and posted in gallery wallet to your address for no additional cost.
"Free Spirit" : Here I used a foam board and etched into it with screws, toy cars, knifes, paint lids, and other bit and pieces. I also embossed the surface with some fishing mesh. I collaged the foam board with, Zincit Kill Rust Spray, Car etch Primer filler spray, Car etch gloss spray, tapes, gold star stickers. I also burnt the surface with fire. The surface is inked with pigment and polished, and using a printing press the ink is transferred to paper.
