Doing the printmaking, I started with a basic drawing on paper. I then scribbled on the back of this paper in pencil and taped the scribbled side to my piece of rubber. I then traced over the drawing in sharpie on the piece of paper, and it bled through onto the rubber. I removed the piece of paper, and then traced the lines again. After there was a clear sharpie print on my rubber, I used a carver to cut out the white parts of my drawing. After this, I used ink to print the figure 5 different times. The photos above are my first print and my last print. I used the theme of line in my piece to detail the horse's body and add a sense of abstract imagination. I find this piece successful altogether because it is very detailed and clear, but next time I may want to add a background, although he black background helps the horse pop in the picture.
