current litho

Current Litho I'm working on.... and my stone

Lithos

So this semester I entered the world of Lithography through the printmaking class I've been taking the past couple of semesters. Here are some of my litho prints. Maybe if I get ambitious I will add some more pictures soon, I just don't have any pictures of other prints I've done.

So you are probably wondering what Lithography is... it's basically a form of printmaking that is done on a stone and through many processes you run your inked up stone through a press with some paper and hopefully get a decent print of it. I included some images of my stone with one of my drawings on it.

Art show

So I fail at keeping my blog updated.... One of my prints made it into the All Student Juried Art Show, so here are some pictures of it. I took pictures of the gallery and of some of the other amazing prints that made it in it to, created by the amazing printmakers from the UW-L shop of Love!!

Old drawings

Hey everyone!  I was going through my flash drive and deleting some pictures off of it and I found these!  So I thought I would upload them.  They are from a few semesters ago....  I think I've grown in ability since then, but this is how I started out with my fascination with plants!!!  :)

This one is a pencil of a tropical foliage houseplant.

 

This one is a cactus done in colored pencil.  This was one of the first colored pencil drawings I have done, and I really don't like it!  

                                                                           

These last two are both house plants too.  The one on the top was one of my moms plants, and is done in pencil.  The one bottom is pretty much the same composition as the first picture, but this one is done with pen and I used a stippling technique (I think that's what it is called) which is pretty much just making the picture using dots.  

final graphic design (Art 308) project!!!

Yay the semester is almost done! Here is my portfolio cover design for my final in Graphic design! Unfortunately I won't be in graphic design next semester. I have come a long way since being a baby graphic design person last semester! I still have A LOT I need to work on though....

A couple of new prints from this semester!

Here are a couple prints from this semester.  I'm still working with plants, but trying out some different ideas.  I really like working with the insets so hopefully in the future I will have similar ones posted!  

Prints!

Here are some of my prints from my semester as a baby!!!  I will add some pictures of what I'm working on now soon!!!
