The pastel didn't show up well on the rives and made it look faded. Water color paint probably would have worked better for rives paper.]]> 2017-01-24 14:52:00 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/149029807 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/149029858 I used a mix or pastel and watercolor paint and printed on watercolor paper.Used mostly pastel and a little watercolor that is hard to see but the black water color stands out the most. An unexpected side effect from using soap on the plastic is that it made a blueish background and makes it look like the sky. ]]> 2017-01-24 14:52:07 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/149029858 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/149030020 I used only Pastel and printed on watercolor paper. I tried to mix the pastel together to try and match the landscape of venus but it kind of made a very dark area near the right of the image but the rest of the image looks fine. When I put the print through the press most of the pastel went on the watercolor paper and less of it was on the plastic sheet so it made the image more vibrant.]]> 2017-01-24 14:52:27 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/149030020 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151151437 When I was creating this print it was a little difficult to use the end of a paint brush to trace the image which is why some pieces look a little dented around the edge of the symbol.I could have should have used a smaller brush so that I could have steadied my hand more easily and had less dents around the image. ]]> 2017-02-02 14:43:07 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151151437 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151154206 2017-02-02 14:49:12 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151154206 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151154861 When creating this print i used a smaller brush to trace because of what happened with my first print. Using a smaller brush to trace gave me a steady hand to trace which made the design look nicer and less dented. There is still some places on the print that ended up over lapping each other which was because I didn't tape down the image so it was moving a little when i was tracing.]]> 2017-02-02 14:50:33 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151154861 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151157751 2017-02-02 14:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151157751 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151158599 2017-02-02 14:57:39 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151158599 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151158746 This print is a little hard to see because of the color I used but its supposed to be a koi fish that looks like its swimming.What I could have done is to make the koi fish a brighter color to see so its easy to identify. What I did do is use a pencil to trace the Fish and it made it very easy to trace but when I was tracing it on the found paper I had to press hard so it ended up putting a lot of the paint into certain areas of the fish like near its head and around the fins.]]> 2017-02-02 14:57:57 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/151158746 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/158985529 These are the best prints i created using the linoleum and rubber blocks I experimented with different colors the first one I did was all black but as I continued I Mixed colors together to get a cool looking effect like the red and silver print which is my favorite. The Mix of the red and silver made a cool dotted pattern on the image. ]]> 2017-03-09 14:49:43 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/158985529 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159666821 2017-03-13 13:37:21 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159666821 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159667360 2017-03-13 13:38:31 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159667360 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159667631 2017-03-13 13:39:02 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159667631 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159669406 2017-03-13 13:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159669406 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159670904 2017-03-13 13:46:33 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159670904 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159670928 2017-03-13 13:46:36 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159670928 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159671202 2017-03-13 13:47:21 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159671202 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159673605 2017-03-13 13:53:24 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159673605 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159673863 This print is not too bad but the printing press didn't press it all down and so some parts of it are missing ink ]]> 2017-03-13 13:54:05 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159673863 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159676170 when it went into the press the rubber block was pushed to one side and made the ink go off of the skull .]]> 2017-03-13 13:59:12 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159676170 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159676560 This is Favorite attempt but it was done by hand which means it is faded because i didn't press Hard enough and it was on practice paper.]]> 2017-03-13 14:00:11 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/159676560 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/166242641 2017-04-13 13:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/166242641 efairbanks2 https://padlet.com/efairbanks2/ki6db1meox2x/wish/166242834 the music that I picked for the collagraph had a happy and relaxed tone to it.
