Today Claire let us start our final Lino piece. I decided to go with my wood idea because I thought it would be more effective with what she wanted us to do. Claire wanted us to do a gradual Lino print meaning we print one colour then go and take more Lino away then print another colour to show a build up of inks. I started by sketching my idea onto the Lino using permanent marker! I then went straight over to the printing area to start my first print. I wanted to have a plain block colour in the background so I decided on yellow. I printed the block yellow 5 times and then washed my Lino. I then cut away more Lino and printed the next colour over the top.
It was very confusing at first and I found it hard to understand but I soon got the idea and knew what I was doing. I only did 2 layers today but I am hoping to do 4.
