Stanley--Final Project

Caroline Stanley

Final Project

For my Final Project, I attempted to do the same techniques I normally do. I like to use small palate knives as well as using large trawls. I like to layer on thick amounts of oil paint to create a lot of texture. This time my paint wasn’t drying as fast as it normally does. I normally mix turpentine and galkid lite in to my paint to create different consistencies, but this time I only mixed in turpentine. My painting wasn’t looking like what I wanted to and this was because it was too wet. I laid paper towels on my painting to pick up some of the top wet paint. When I did this a relief print was left. I was given some nice big paper so I used this to take larger prints. I would put different colors on the painting and then take a relief print. I really liked how three prints came out so my final project tuned into prints of my painting.
