About the Author- Printing trio

Today I used three different print methods, and it was really good to get back in the print room for the whole day and just see what I could make without stressing about deadlines

Digital designs made during inductions with intent to screen print:

-I was a bit dubious about making designs on screen, but I played around with a few compositions and managed to get some positives which I was able to use in my screen print tutorials and included halftone, which I was really excited to try

Screen prints:

- I tried different compositions and colours during the print process to see what spontaneous prints I could make
- I was overall really pleased with how the halftone turned out, and I would love to use this process in the future to create tonal elements in screen print

Lino/mono print:

- This was the print method I was happiest with today, as I think the harsh contrasts of the blue monoprint and black lino alongside the white paper offer a very 'yin and yang' feel, which matches Yutang perfectly

Monoprint/monotype:

- I didn't particularly like this outcome, as I found it was too messy and just interfered with the actual content of the image
- I think monotype would suit a more mark making based imagery and design, but for me, it does not work as the main, detailed element of a design
