Monoprints

Monoprints

Hi bloggers, during week 7 we have been making our monoprints and mine was a lizard.

We first sketch the animals in our art book and make patterns for the background. Next we copy our animal on a A2 type of paper after we trace the A4 board around our animal. Then we get another A2 type of paper and then we copy our animal and background on the other paper. When we are done, we get a A4 board and paint with a roller and roll on the board. Later we press our picture on the board we painted on and then we trace it with a pencil. When we are done with our tracing we leave our picture to dry for a few days. Later when our picture is dry we take it and then we add some pastels and we trace the outline of our animal or we can also colour in the patterns.
