I spent the day working on monoprints, after collecting some words from magazines, I settled for the word 'Going'. I thought it was interesting and open to interpret in different ways. I started creating some images in my sketchbook for possible printing.
I really enjoyed these images, I was working with the lines thinking about paths, or direction. I had some going off the page, to make it seem continuous, quite like the word, it's kind of constant.
Using the word itself, I really liked this idea but I thought it would be quite time consuming. The second image of the legs, I was thinking about journeys again. I eventually settled for this one because the image was so simple but really embodied the word.
My final print, I'm really happy with how this came out. We were sharing ink prints round the room, and someone else's print came off on mine in the orange, but I quite like how it looks, adds something different I guess! I wish I had the chance to do a few more, but it was fun and a good way to get started on ideas with my project.
