Print Making

Adding texture to my print was done by using grooves to create the the white part of the penguin. Rather than removing the whole top layer, I used individual lines for the purpose of adding texture. There is a clear positive vs. negative theme in the art in the form of the black and white contrast in the print. The project didn't turn out as well as hoped, mostly because of either a lack of paint on the press, or too much paint on the press. Depth was difficult to create in this print because we only made one layer of color in the linoleum was created a struggle to show true depth. I have no experience working with prints, therefore knowing how deep and far apart to make each cut was a difficult process for me.
