Recipie Card
Project type: Printmaking (Lino)
Date: January 2024
Location: University of Arkansas at Little Rock
During this design I took a lot of inspiration from Picasso’s printmaking designs. I chose to do simplistic look when designing this self portrait. I used blocks of colors and lines to create movement and dynamic layout, which makes the simple composition stand out. I chose to further the use of line and simple shapes from the foreground, and applied them to the background. This allowed me to make used of the negative white space in the background. The part that took a lot of planing and designing was how to make sure the background and the foreground are unified together but the viewer is able to tell the difference between the two.
