The subject of my final project is a linoleum print of my dog Brandy that I extended to make super colorful and fun. I used a linoleum square to carve the picture of Brandy and then I used Block Printing Ink to print the picture on a piece of paper. I haven't done anything with Brandy yet this year for art, so that's why I decided to choose this.

I used the Linoleum Printing technique to print out the picture that I wanted to print in different colors. I didn't change a lot when I was making this project, I pretty much just did the printing and went with the flow and went with what I liked.

I took this picture on Mother's Day because my dog looked super cute in her little bandana and I haven't put this picture to use quite yet so this was the perfect opportunity. My project relates to my life because the image is my dog and I took the picture as well. If I had to change anything I would change the red to mint, I just feel like it looks a little awkward from mint to red. But overall, I really like the outcome of this project.
