This project involved experimenting with print making techniques. I started by creating print plates using a variety of different materials to see what different kinds of textures I could achieve. After this I created some plates by taking images that were either existing artworks or my own photos, tracing them using the live trace tool on Adobe illustrator and cutting them out with a laser cutter onto card. I then covered these with ink and printed the designs onto paper.
