I've started a new art and design elective project! For the first 2 weeks I'll be doing Print. For those of you who don't know what print is, it is a process for reproducing texts and images, typically with ink on paper using a printing press. The two printing processes we will be using is monoprint and drypoint. 


For my project I have to explore the nature of space in my immediate environment. I have to produce a series of prints that look at aspects of how this space defines me. How I occupy it. How I continue to alter it. How I experience it. How we personalize it.

Driving along in my car I noticed a huge swarm of birds. I pulled in my car, put on the hazards and started recording!!

I love the contrast of the black birds against the beautiful blue sky.
Quote of the day:


"There is nothing in which the birds differ more from man than the way in which they can build and yet leave a landscape as it was before."


Robert Wilson Lynd

I created the feather sculptures using clay. I etched out the intricate feather markings using a small metal carving tool. I then painted it using oil based paints.
