fifth blog (print + publishing)

 Relief prints.




 To make a relief print: 
  • Find any suitable objects (for example, i used a lego block, a magic wand, small pegs and a hair brush).
  • Using a roller apply a little water based ink over the specific object.
  • Press the object, ink side down onto your paper and with an even amount of pressure, push it to relieve all the ink onto the paper.
  • For a distressed effect, repeat this, without adding any extra ink so that the print is lighter and more patchy. 
  • Continue this with the rest of your objects until you have your desired print.
