Printmaking process

Relief process

In an relief printing, artist would cut out the areas off a surface of the parts they don't need. artist use etching and sketching techniques to convey their art. They would then transfer their piece using a barren.

Steps

1. Images drawn onto surface with pencil

2. use a chisel to carve away all the negative space 
3. Ink is applied to the surface
4. ink is transfered to a piece of paper
       - Use barren (light pressure)
5. Let dry and, then you are done!  :) 


Intaglio Process

  In intaglio printmaking the artist incises into a surface of a plate with tools or acid. Then that plate would be coated with ink. then you would wipe that plate so the ink would only remain only in the incised areas. 

Steps.

1- Ink plate so that its fully covered
2. remove ink from plate
3. place plate in hot surface
4. let it soak
5. remove excess water
6. Transfer ink plate to press
7. Move the press with some pressure
8. Carefully remove the paper, then you're done!


Lithography

Lithography is based on the factors that oil and water do not mix. Areas with moisture repel the oil leaving out the negative space. The inked areas would be transferred to paper with a press.

Steps

1. Draw on stone with at material that contains grease. Ex- litho Crayons
2. Apply Arabic gum to chemically separate the image from the non image area.
3. Roll image on press.
4. Let dry then your'e complete.

A Day in the life at school 

All of us teenagers have to suffer the life of school. We have to wake up at 6 am every week day. School will usually end up exhausting. For me my opinions on school will be similar yo
 everyone else's! So here is my typical day at school.
  My school day starts at 5:55 am where I struggle to get out of bed and get ready. Then I end up rushing to the bus stop at 6:55.  When school starts I only look forward to my electives, but my core classes make me sad. Whenever I get to class I'm always unprepared losings pencils and my 100$ calculator. My least favorite class is history where the teacher teaches us using wikipedia.
  Even though school is usually dragging I enjoy it at the same time. The reason is because I'm surrounded by friends to bring some color in my day. Caitlyn is my best bud to have breakdowns with and eat Taco Bell. I always enjoy talking about boys with Asya, and ally is always chilling with me in trashcan. In, conclusion school can be dull in drawing but I always have amazing people around to make it better.
   


Panorama reflection

In this project we had to take 10 photos and turn them into a panorama collage with a story. For mine I just took random pictures around school. in the project I used blending modes and layer mask to make it flow. After this I feel more confident in using photoshop.

POP ART

What did I do

For my pop art project I choose to use random colors that are appealing. I copied my main layer many times and change all the colors and textures out of the copies and layered them on top of each other.

My inspiration

I waned to do a classic pop-art style inspired by Andy Warhol. He is most famous for his iconic Marilyn Monroe piece. I incorporated his style by using multiple colors and copying the same picture and just changing the color.

Finished thoughts

At the end of the project I was pretty impressed with my work. Although it could of been a little more clean. It matched up with my vision pretty well.
