Me-scape: A reductive Block Print


At the beginning of the print making project, I was pretty confident with my ability to make a good print. I somehow ended up carving away the wrong sections of my block so my end result was not exactly what I intended it to be...anyhow, I did struggle with this project. It was very hard to work backwards, meaning carving away what you want to stay first, then printing, then repeating the process various times. Starting with a project that is difficult to begin with then making it harder by having to work backwards, conceptually made my brain go WHOAAA! If I were to do this project over again, I would really focus on where I was supposed to be carving away that way my end result ended up being more of what I wanted it to be.
