Students have been working on a new project to get prepared for their first printmaking lesson when we return from winter break. We are working on understanding positive and negative space as well as learning how to use an xacto knife safely and properly. So far so good!
Step one:
Cut magazine strips and glue them side by side filling the entire paper for the background or negative space of the project.
After drawing a creative design, we used Xacto knives to cut out the negative areas of our designs leaving us with some awesome positive space designs.
So far the projects are looking great. Next post will be the last few steps and finished results!
Keep it up guys!
