NOW: DEEP ROUTE

Shadows.

Final layout for the assessment. One year gone already!

Coming back to the studio...the last three days were intense but so nice. Now we need to prepare for the assessments next week.

Each of us got a print from her, just with the first layer and we were asked to “leave our mark” on it. In the end they will be exposed all together.

Used the thin wood again to create the effect of 3D in this print.

I based those two prints on beautiful rocks covered with moss that I saw on the beach.

The ship turned into a sea monster... my first “big” lino cut. It took me a few hours and one cut finger (just a little cut in my thumb). I really enjoyed it and the result it’s worth the work. It’s not perfect, and the way I thought it would look like, but it has a little something! And it reflects the main idea I wanted to achieve. I have to work on my technique in lino cutting and think more about the black and white spaces.

Both are monoprints, but I used different procedures.

Some color inspiration of course...

Not so nice pictures but at least an idea of the prints.

Tried out cyanotype. The liquid on paper gives you endless option to play around with the shadows. In this case I drawed on acetate and used some twigs from the surroundings. 20 minutes ish in the sun and the miracle starts to work!

First day in Spanish point after the Easter break...we are asked to go for a walk and get inspired. And of course nature inspired me again! It’s just amazing!

And then...wait...

Last day of printing before Easter...

My wall right now...searching for inspiration before the year is gone...!

Unfortunately I didn’t take any pictures during my screen printing...but hey, what’s the internet for? I had fun doing it and will probably try it out way more times....this was just a test run!

I tried to play with it a bit so I used different papers/backgrounds and ink.
