Linoleum Prints 

The main Idea that Guided my artwork was to use an EZ cut block and carve a design on it. I knew I wanted to make a flower so I came up with two different flowers and I decided to go with a Hawaiian flower.

The materials I used for this artwork were Ink and paper. I started with a sketch and after I went over It with a 6B pencil on top of my EZ cut block, then I started carving. When I was done carving I started to Print on paper, I made a print with black ink, Blue and green, and one with fabric paint on a white shirt.

While I was trying to do the multi-colored one I struggled with masking I didn't really know what to do, every time I put the paper on the parts I wanted to be green it would just move as soon as I put the paper on. I also struggled with the Unique surface one, since my unique surface was a shirt I only had one try to get it right and since I wasn't good with masking I decided to just paint the fabric paint onto my block and then print on my shirt, I had to do it multiple time because the ink was so thin and after the third time I misplaced it but I ended up with going over it with a paintbrush I also had to go over some spots with white because I got paint places they weren't supposed to be.
