Water Color Project

in this project we used water colors to make our picture pop. First you will need to have mod lodge, a squeegee, a cup of water, A piece of paper that is a quarter of an inch to half an inch bigger than you picture on all sides, and the picture you want. The first thing your going to do is use the water colors to make a design on the paper (cover the whole paper with your design). let the water colors dry then Put mod lodge on the picture and place it in the center of the design paper. use your squeegee to scrape any bubbles and make it as flat as possible. Let it dry then usse the water to push away the paper of your picture (be gentle).

I liked this project because it was relaxing and fun to make the design. I struggled with thinking of a design to make. I also struggled to remove some of the paper from my project.

I always thought that I was just talking out of boredom but now I see that it was just my nature to be talkative. I think my personality type helps by contributing ideas to groups and getting others ...

Printing Processes

Relief Process One way works uses a wood cut with ink on it and then letting the ink be pressed onto the paper. You use pressure to transfer the ink to the paper. Grain in the wood allows the artist to vary the color/texture. A linoleum cut is similar to a wood cut. The linoleum cut does not dull the tools as much and prints flat black unlike the wood cut. Wood cut: Tone the block Transfer with iron oxide or carbon paper Choose white line or black line composition Cut Roll ink over the block evenly Press  Linoleum: Lay out drawing with a marker Cut Roll ink on block Press Intaglio This technique involves scratching or moving the plate.
