It's been a while...

Mark Making Experimentation 


Our first uni project involved choosing an event and creating a poster that could be screen printed.  I chose the new film Buried as my subject as I thought I could play about alot with the word and produce some fun, experimental pieces.  I have been using Indian Ink to create some mixed media pieces.  


Above is white crayon and ink.  I love how the crayon doesn't leave the characters perfectly smooth and clear. The ink bleeds into the edges of the characters where the crayon hasn't perfectly marked the page.


This piece also uses white crayon and ink but the ink has been watered down.  This leaves a more subtle mark on the page.  I like how the crayon doesn't fully resist the ink and it half covers the characters.  It almost buries the word Buried into the background.
