CrawdaddySimoneAquatintFinal
i got all my aquatints back from being graded, so i can finally post them! I had a little trouble with this final aquatint process. I didn't get the values I had planned on, but I think that will get better if i do a few more. We had to turn in a series of 6, so this is one of those 6. i also had a few extra prints that i hand colored with watercolors and inks. i love how they turned out! Defintely a project i will try again!
GlitzInkScreenprint
My better versions of this project are being graded right now...this one isn't registered correctly, so the layers didn't match up during printing, but for my 1st silkscreening attempt, i'm pretty pleased. I've wanted to know how to do this for so long, and i love it!!! This is something i can do from home, too, once i buy a screen and such, without needing to buy an expensive press or anything, so i'll be able to continue to work on it outside of school. i am interested in experimenting with color ink, and some various papers.

My newest painting series is coming along, and I can't wait for the BIG REVEAL! check back soon...
Fleur de Lis Madonna
I had some "leftovers" that I decided to mess around with...a photo that I cut out and crumpled, and some copper heart cutouts from jewelry making class. I collaged them in with acrylics, fleur de lis stamp, and copper leaf.Friday, October 03, 2008
Crawdaddy Simone- Step 1
For my latest printmaking assignment, I had to illustrate a song for a line etch/aquatint process. After struggling with which song to pick, I finally settled on Crawdaddy Simone by The Horrors. The design was also inspired from a previous journal page. This line etch is the 1st step...next I have to decide where to put the values, and do the aquatint process.
So stay tuned for the finished product!
