PAPER
The paper we printed with over the weekend was:
- 200gsm acid free cartridge paper – for proofing
- Fabriano Rosaspina 285gsm
- Magnani Pescia Printmaking Paper 300gsm (Solveig)
Both printmaking papers are good papers, and reasonably priced. Both work well with embossing and inked intaglio processes.
I buy paper from various sources. Keep an eye out for paper sales. I will post into the Inky Fingers Facebook group when I know different suppliers are having sales.
CHINE-COLLÉ
Experiment with different papers for adding chine-collé to your prints.
We used a rice paste glue to stick our chine-collé papers to the printmaking paper. I have found this to be the best glue for this process.
You can also make your own paste. There are a lot of online recipes – do some googling for an easy-to-follow recipe “rice paste glue recipe”.
