block print project

for the block print project, we carved out linoleum blocks and used a printing press to transfer the ink onto paper. for mine, i carved out a crab. i was unsatisfied with my project, because i have done this project before and i should have tried to challenge myself harder.
the other part of this project was the mono print. we painted on a piece of plexi-glass and then use the printing press to transfer the image. i printed a picture of an owl, then printed black dripping pain t over my first picture. the effect was dark,m and you can only see the owl partially. i was very satisfied with this project because i didnt really like the first print but i experimented and printed over it again and now it looks exactly how i wanted it to!
