Did you learn new techniques or processes as part of the work for this project?
Yes I did. This project was about printmaking, even though I had done a print in Art One I had never done several layers. So this was a new experience for me. At the beginning I couldn't understand how the several layers would all make one picture. I was really happy with the way it turned out after it was finished. What I learned was how to start with the lightest color and cut out everything I want to stay that color. It was a really intricate process that Mrs. Rossi did a really good job explaining. I'm so glad I was able to learn these techniques they were super cool!
Did you try something that you weren’t sure about as part of this project?
When I started this specific building I was very unsure about the small lines and how detailed all the windows were. I really like the way the lines turned out, they aren't perfectly aligned which makes it kind of cool. If I were to try this project again with the same subject I would try to do the small lines first so that they wouldn't get unaligned throughout the process.
How did you respond to challenges that occurred as you worked?
When we started this project we did practices. Everytime I tried to lay the print down it would be un aligned. My way of fixing the challenge was to have a friend help me which also didn't work. So my last way of trying to respond to the challenges was by finding a different way of laying it down. I started laying the print down backwards and the results were so much better.
