Print Making *Finished*

I think I did good on this prject considering all the tiny spots that was on this animal. The way I decided to do all the Contrast, was cut out the White on the back, but cut the black out on the face. This gave it a good texture, as well as contrast. The way we could use Contrast to show the the animal, was to cut out all the parts that make up the features, such as the hair. I think this project is Crafted quite nicely, even though the Eyes are a bit sloppy. It was really hard to cut out small things like the hair, and the eyes. Print making was very difficult. Only because you have to decide how, and what parts to cut out, to make it look like an animal. It gets very confusing sometimes.

Print Making

For this project we had to pick three animals, sketch them, and then choose which one we liked the best to cut out, and make the print of. I chose the red panda because it was the best one I drew, and it was unique. This animal didnt have alot of texture, just fur, which was hard to draw, and make it look right. Texture is needed for these prints to make it look more realistic. If it doesnt look realistic, then it doesnt look right, or good. the texture of the fur was hard to put in so I put thicker lines of fur, so I can cut around them. The reason we had to choose three different pictures of our animals is so we get a feel of what the animal looks like from different positions. If we only know what it looks like from one position, then we wouldnt be able to draw it as greatly. When I look at the sketches, I can tell which one will be the best for this because it has enough texture, and it will fit perfectly.
