2.     How did you add texture and contrast to your print? Is this important? Why?

 

I added texture by carving out the scars on the manatee and then i added some seaweed and some ocean water

4.     Describe the craftsmanship of your print. (How good the project is technically crafted)

 

It was technically a manatee but it was not technically crafted very well even though i tried really hard. it was looking pretty good but then i put paint on it and it went south.

6.     Explain your experience with Printmaking. What were the obstacles and advantages?

 

i did it h grade but ni was awful at it so i didnt do very well in 8th grade.

 

 

 

 

1. Why is texture so important to have in your sketches?

Texture is important so you can get a more realistic looking print. also it helps show what animal it is.

2. Why is it neccessary for you to have several references of each animal and each background? Explain.

It is important to have several refernces because it helps you see how the animal actually  looks. Also we can compare it to the pictures to see if we accomplished our goal.

3. When you look at your sketches are you able to see which sketch is the strongest and will make the best print? How do you know this? 

Yes because if i can draw the animal in pencil it will be a little harder but i think i can do it in print. but if i cant even draw it with pencil i wont even be able to print it

1)   This project was the best. i thought it was the best because all we did was stand around all class. Also we got to paint spongebob scenes and not seem strange. I liked how we made it look 3-d and that i got to jellyfish with patrick.

2) The importance of collaboratio in this project was that if we didnt agree it wouldnt have looked as real. We all decided on the same project idea and so then we set to work and everyone enjoyed coloring and drawing everyhting.

3) This project was very successful. It allowed us to do what we wanted. I had some very skilled partners too. Rachel and Victoria who really brought this project to life. Also Ben he and i were like partners in crime. Great project.
