Chine-Collé is an elaborate time-honored technique in which the engraved image is transferred to a delicate surface by bonding it to a heavier support during the printmaking process. This allows Karla to hand-pull fine details from her plates using beautiful Thai Unryu paper, a translucent natural surface, where kozo fibers (mulberry bush) beautifully embedded in the paper are clearly visible.

Once the Chine-collé printmaking process is completed, Karla then uses watercolor to paint each piece in the edition, turning each Classics Collection work of art into a one-of-a-kind treasured heirloom.
