Pasta Machine Printmaking Experiments | Printing Plants, Oil Paint & Cardboard

In this studio session, I’m experimenting with printmaking at home — using my pasta machine as a press! I wanted to see if I could:

Run plant material through the pasta press to create relief prints

Use a forgotten tube of white oil paint as printing ink

Print onto brown packaging paper and even cardboard

This is a longer, relaxed “studio experiment” video where I play, test, and see what happens — proving you don’t need a professional print studio to explore creative printmaking.
