Well, this didn’t come out as clearly as I’d hoped, but there’s still something I like about it.

I think this is my favorite one by far. This is closer to the direction I want to go. There is something about this that makes me very happy.
Day 31 – Lincoln with Printer

This one is interesting to me, because I know now something I hoped was possible is now possible. Good news for future projects.
Day 28 – Faded Abe

I think I took a few too many step on making this one. I went to far and should have stopped after adding the silver ink. Oh well, I learn.

Today I messed around a little bit with printing technique, and I think I’ve come up with some nice ideas. They’re take a little practice though. I’m really enjoying doing these

Day 25 – Penny Print

After a long wait, I’ve finally started printing. This one is not much more than a test, but it’s going in the right direction. I’m excited about having another design tool in my arsenal.
Day 24 – Block Print Step 1
Saturday, October 10th, 2009
I don’t have time to complete the whole block print in the time I had today, but I did get the first step done, and I thought you might like to see my process. I basically make a copy after copy for the original image, getting it into a negative/reversed version, appropriate for printing. The way I do it is almost like making a photocopy of a photocopy. Every time I make a copy, the lines lose detail and shapes simplify. Hopefully multiple prints will follow tomorrow.
