Lily Pond Reductive Original Linocut Print and Printmaking Exhibition

I managed to create the Lotus Pond using reductive printmaking method as well. The print is created by the several steps involving cutting and applying colors:
  1. cut away the white flower part, apply pink color
  2. cut away the pink flower part, apply green color
  3. cut away the green background, apply dark green color
  4. ink dark red in the plate and wipe away the dark red in the lotus leaves part in the plate so that the dark red only apply to the lotus flower bud
I like the pink shining through the  green.

 Silkscreen Print
I went to a printmaking exhibition last night in "The Blank Canvas" art gallery.  It is an exhibition of series of artworks by 8 emerging print making artists. I like this silkscreen piece.
