First Lino print.

i thought id show how my first little lino print turned out :)

Lino cut - totem

Ok so i never thought it would be this hard cut out our lino designs, i think the fact that i picked up a dodgy cutting tool didn't help much. i think everyone will come to class tomorrow with sore hands from cutting out their designs, and who has cut themselves with the cutting tools like me and Lauren already have. Anyway i thought id show my progress with it, I've nearly finished cutting out the design ready to print it on Friday. It's quite a messy job doing this with bits of lino flying all over the room.

Overview of semester 2:

Well we definitely came into semester 2 with no ideas of taking things slowly! the assignments we have in store for this semester seem quite interesting, personally the Cindy Sherman homage stands out to me the most, it looks like a lot of fun and can't wait to get into it. I'm a little apprehensive about the drawing side of things which seems a lot more involved in this semesters work. It's in nearly every assignment and we have a straight drawing assignment which probably won't work out very well for me but I'll try my best. there's a few new things as well like lino printing which i haven't done before. Well i guess ill just have to wait and see how things go..

Lego mini figure.

So after a long long time of frustration and confusion working through our lego figures i finally finished my figure the second week of the holidays and and so glad to have handed it in!! it turned out quite well in the end. It doesn't look much like me, but it is a lego figure so i guess that's a good thing.. the UV template took me a long time because i re-did everything about 10 times because i didn't like how it turned out even though it still looked pretty much the same from the first attempt to the last. well here's what the final product looks like..
