The inspiration for my final exam was the use of color. In previous prints I had made cool background papers and I knew I wanted to incorporate that into my exam. I also knew I wanted to used darker purple and pink colors then accent it with yellows and oranges. First I did one pattern on the big sheet where I just rolled the same ink on it throughout the whole paper. Then I rolled other colors onto other papers. I then ripped the smaller papers and glued them onto the big one. I only used linoleum and painting for my medias. I used my linos from the last two projects and printed them on. Then I painted on a pattern similar to the jackalope’s horns in the corner. The only challenge I faced was trying to decide what I wanted for my drawing media. I was going to do flowers but in the end I decided on swirls. I think the whole thing is good and well done. The only thing I don’t like is the swirls I painted in the corner. Even though I painted it carefully, they don’t look very good and I feel like it brings the whole picture down in skill level. Overall I think my project turned out well considering the rough start I had in the beginning.
