Reduction Prints

 In art this term we have been looking at block printing and reduction prints, first we started off by drawing images inspired by Sonia Terk Delaunay, then we created our very own image. 

Method:

• Draw on a piece of lino the image/pattern you want
• Use lino cutting tools to carve in your design.
• Cover the lino in ink starting with a light shade.
• Press the lino onto a clear piece of paper, turn it over then rub a spoon over the paper to press the ink down.
• Then cut off whatever shapes/pieces you want to that first colour of ink.
• Cover the lino in a darker shade of ink and repeat this until you have 3 layers/colours of ink on your paper. 

Micheal Mew

 

In art we have been looking at an artist called Micheal Mew, he does work with lots of different images combined to make leading lines and to have a focal point. Leading lines are exactly that, the lines that lead you to the main image, and the focal point is the main image. This is an example of his work.

For our own work, we had to take magazine images and combine them then add some drawings and paint over them, I have added my thumbnail sketches and my final product.

In art this week we looked at creating a composition out of a picture either one from google or one we took ourselves I used one off of my phone from a holiday I took. We had to capture the shadows and the basic shapes of the image.
