yellow

with a simple yellow note booklet I created a nice effect cutting from a small to a bigger circle...

X

When I had the Idea of using the toothpick to create a x, I thought it would look funny but actually it was a good idea to experimented.. I'll make it longer so that it can take different shape..

Vernacular glue

I bought in a shop this alphabet and numbers for children...

instead than use them I decided to fill up the gap with glue.. I left to dry up for 2 days and then ready to create my personal alphabet..

Braille Labelling of Medicines

I was trying to find a book with braille writing but instead I decided to use the labeling of medicines packaging..

I don't know if I'm going to use it for my A-Z project,after i scanned i changed with saturation option.. obtained a quite nice texture..

I found this image in a shoes shop, it's similar at the linocut material but much easier to work with because I didn't need to cut out anything because it was already done..:)

in a spare time today between my workshop I printed in different paper to see which one would the ink work better..

Solarplate

SOLARPLATE

IS A LIGHT SENSITIZED STEEL BACKED POLYMER MATERIAL USED BY
ARTISTS AS AN ALTERNATIVE TO HAZARDOUS PRINTING TECHNIQUES. IT IS A SIMPLE,
SAFER, AND FASTER APPROACH THAN TRADITIONAL ETCHING AND RELIEF PRINTING.

How is it done?

IT MAY BE DONE BY WORKING ON THE PLATE DIRECTLY, WITH OPAQUE MATERIALS IN
THE FORM OF NON-WATER BASED PIGMENTS, OR...
IT MAY BE UTILIZED BY EXPOSING THE PLATE THROUGH A TRANSPARENT FILM WITH
ARTWORK ON IT. THE FILM MAY BE CREATED BY DRAWING ON ACETATE, PHOTOCOPYING
OR SCANNING AND PRINTING ON FILM, OR DARKROOM TECHNIQUES WITH KODALITH.
A POSITIVE TRANSPARENCY IS FOR PRINTING AS AN ETCHING; A NEGATIVE
TRANSPARENCY IS FOR PRINTING A RELIEF IMPRESSION.

collagraph

Printmaking: Collagraphs/Collage Blocks
A Collagraph print is a collage printmaking technique and is a form of Intaglio printing. The collagraph plate is printed in the same way as etchings, but also include the basic principle of relief printing and can be printed either as intaglio or relief.

The term collagraph refer to a collage board where the materials are assembled on a flat base or plate (matrix) to form a relief block with different surface levels and textures.

Collagraph plates are created by sticking and gluing materials like textured paper or fabric onto the plate and then coat it with varnish or acrylic medium afterwards to protect the materials.

The plate can be made from wood plates or cardboard plates that you build up using different materials.
