1. Describe the overall composition of your artwork (balance, unity, rhythm and movement).
2. How did you add texture and contrast to your print? Is this important? Why?
I added texture by putting lines in certain places on objects. The lines on the monkey and the leaves really bring out texture in the objects and it would not be the same without them.This is very important otherwise it would be one shape of ink. Without no lines in the object you cant make out what the picture is once you print it, so using good contrast helps out a lot to bring out the objects.
3. Explain how you used positive and negative space to show your image.
Cutting out what is black really helps you determine distance in the print, and see what is up front and what is in the backround.
4. Describe the craftsmanship of your print. (How good the project is technically crafted)
The craftmanship of my print i think was good to go off of what i had in my sketch. I had to many lines in defining the fur on the monkey in my sketch. I think that i did a good job simplifying the fur while still having the same contrast in the print.
5. Were you able to achieve depth by showing a foreground, middle ground and back- ground? Explain.
I belive i was able to achieve depth because when you look at it you can tell that the leaves and the monkey are up front, while the branches are just behind the monkey. Making everything black around it helps create the backround.
6. Explain your experience with Printmaking. What were the obstacles and advantages?
Printmaking overall was not that hard to do. The only obstacle that i had was that with some of the small lines, getting in to my last prints the ink was starting to get into some of those lines which left off contrast in some areas
