Singing bowls


The singing bowls seemed to produce different work in all of us but it certainly did for me. These two made the most interesting of my prints in style and technique from the week, in my opinion. The first print is a ghost after a collaboration print with Juliet. The second print was made with red ink on top of the plate after the collaboration. All three colors had been used for the collaboration, followed by the ghost print, then red ink applied to the plate again. I plan to try some more prints with this plate on my own. The exciting thing I learned in printmaking was the idea that I can apply these techniques to my botanical classes. This was the first printmaking class for me so its use in my botanical classes is an eye-opener. With the final project this week, I intend to try out the possibility of print in botanicals.
