The Puppy



The idea behind my final print is that I was just trying to have fun and at the same time use different scketch marks, like cross hatching, to place the dark and light in the picture. The work demonstrates the explanation of my idea by I don't really know so you figure it out... My strengths are of the print the shadowing for the most part (it looks much better if you see it from a far or when it is shrunken). I learned how to print using a plastic plate, an oil based ink, a roling press, and wet paper. I also learned how messy oil based ink can be and how hard it is to get off of anything so you have to clean it with something like "simple green" and not water. I would use a different scketch mark, maybe lines or dashes/dots, and I would pick a different subject.
