✧✧✦PRINTMAKING✦✧✧

some prints i've made in the past two weeks of class!




a four layer screenprint for the first project. definitely didn't expect it to be as hard as it was. haha you really have to plan every last detail ahead of time, which is something i am not used to AT ALL. :'9 if there was more time i would have played around more with the colours and layers, but overall i'm pretty okay with it.




and drypoint!! my new found love. ; u ; really happy with how these turned out. i just hope the piece i'm doing for my second project ( Aron Wiesenfeld-inspired ) turns out even better.



i'm hoping to find a printmaking studio somewhere in toronto for relatively cheap. the printmaking studios in the school are closed for the summer since there won't be any more classes, and it also kind of sucks that students who aren't taking any printmaking courses aren't allowed in the studios during the regular school year. i understand why, but it would be nice if i could use these techniques for illustration projects! thinking about the possibility of taking a minor in printmaking, since i'm planning to do thesis in 5th year instead of 4th now. :v

  3. These are sick! Is drypoint the technique where you etch into a plexiglass plate? I did something like that when I used to take art classes at the AGO. We used dental tools to etch, haha.

    Is schwing ok now? I've been meaning to text you to hang out but I remember you said he's not doing so well T__T
