Collagraph Printing.

 Here are two of the newly constructed collagraph plates based on the Haeckel  images. The top one is of an algae and the lower one is of a marine creature.

 The greenish prints look more like the original animal, but the lower one in orange looks like, well an orange! A mistake to use that colour I think, although oranges don't really have the large central part shown here.

Using more than one colour starts to get tricky with a plate, as it's very easy just to blend the two colours together and get mud. I quite like this mixture of blue and orange. 

 The one below here shows the added texture more clearly I think and I like the contrast of colour between the outer areas and the inner part.

Another slightly different green print, which I think shows the inner texture more clearly. I obviously didn't press in the similar texture enough on the outer rim however, as it's barely visible..
