Helen Shaddock: Tuesday's prints
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/tuesdays-prints.html
Tuesday, 4 August 2015. I've had another productive and fun day in the inking up etching room printing onto seaweed with liquorice allsorts. Here are a selection of the prints I made today.

Helen Shaddock: Shades of grey
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/shades-of-grey.html
Saturday, 1 August 2015. I am continuing to print on pieces of nori, with my intention being to cover a whole sheet with a grid of printed nori. I have no set composition at this stage, but am focusing on individual elements which will later be shifted about in order to create a whole. The patterns on the nori vary from piece to piece, sometimes using a range of shape of stamps on one sheet, and at other times using just one stamp. Love it. :-). 3 August 2015 at 02:57.

Helen Shaddock: Gridded seaweed
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/gridded-seaweed.html
Friday, 7 August 2015. Currently they are placed in a grid with no specific reason why one piece is next to the another, other than that they were printed, left to dry, and moved from the print room into the studio at a similar time. Therefore I want to move the pieces around within the grid themselves, forming different relationships between them and seeing the arrangement as a composition. I also want to try mixing the laser cut seaweed amongst the printed seaweed. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Helen Shaddock: Wednesday's prints
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/wednesdays-prints.html
Wednesday, 5 August 2015. After another day in the print room I have now printed onto over 121 pieces of seaweed, and therefore have enough to form a grid on the large piece of fabric that I have. It may be that I do not attach the seaweed to the fabric, but may pin the sheets directly onto the wall or lay them on the floor, but now I think I have enough to test out the options with. I am now going to try to laser cut seaweed and engrave different surfaces with the patterns from the prints on seaweed.

Helen Shaddock: Laser cutting seaweed and rice paper
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/laser-cutting-seaweed-and-rice-paper.html
Thursday, 6 August 2015. Laser cutting seaweed and rice paper. I have been using the laser cutter to engrave and cut seaweed and rice paper. I scanned the prints that I made on white paper, and then did some editing in Photoshop to create the file for the laser cutter. My initial experiment was to engrave seaweed, which had the affect of creating what seemed like a lighter tone of green in the places where the laser had engraved it. It wasn't as I had imagined, and smelled horrid! Transformation whereby ...

Helen Shaddock: From colour to white
http://helenshaddock.blogspot.com/2015/08/from-colour-to-white.html
Monday, 3 August 2015. From colour to white. Ive been thinking about ways in which I can make the outcome of a process less predictable. I was reminded of an activity where a coloured background is created using wax crayons, and this would. Then be painted over to cover the entire background. Marks would then be applied to the surface by using a implement such as the end of a paintbrush, a toothbrush or a blunt knife. These marks would reveal the surface underneath.
