French teacup collagraph

I took this photograph some years ago whilst visiting my friend in France. Having been inspired by a linocut artist Yassir Malik who I follow on instagram I thought id have a go at producing a collagraph print lovely based on the teacup photo.

Evening carving

Finished plate

Pulled print

There are bits that I realised were not carved into when they should have been and although Ive altered the plate I have yet to have a go at reprinting it. All in all though pretty happy with the outcome. I ended up with a couple of good prints and will have a go at hand colouring one of them at some point.
