Project 4 Experiments with printing and painting Stage 2

Block Printing and Relief Printing:

I started by making some sketches of simple shapes I could use for making into a printing block. I looked over the mark making I had done in my old sketchbooks then made up some blocks. Below is the result

Lino block cut so that the pattern can be tessellated
