Frottage day I


Great start with immediate imagery secured through mapping on campus. Innovative 360 degrees approach I am sure to use with my older students. This quick record of rolling scenery gave us fast drawings to take back to the studio to print. The frottage method of monoprinting is simple, straight forward and openended, yeilding seductive drawing lines and scratchy dimension. The soft qualities of the lines leaves the composition with a warm fuzzy feeling.
