I started by testing the press and the image had printed
properly, using black ink, after I was satisfied that the image would print
correctly I began to experiment more.
After testing out different colours I used them on different
types of materials and coloured paper and different materials.
My favourite print is the print I have done on a black piece
of board with white ink. The combination and contrast between the colours bring
out more definition. And although it was the same elements as the black ink on
white paper, it has more of an appealing look to it.
The prints I had done on cardboard had a really nice effect,
once the cardboard had gone through the press, it gave it a great texture as it
had been flattened and the inner folds had extruded, also the colours of the
ink had connected a contrasted with the colours of the ink.
I attempted to create a collage to add to my selection of
prints by adding newspaper exerts to a piece of cardboard and the black and
white coloured papers and items to create a nice connection between the twos'
old looking qualities, after adding the black print, I realised that it was unsuccessful,
the ink had almost blended with the colours of the newspaper and the detail of
the print was hidden almost completely.
