I am now investigating faces with Felt. I took a plaster mould of my own face, using plaster of paris and one of Helen's today.. thanks Helen... and with those I'm going experiment with felt. I have already done one but I feel its a bit flimsey so going to try and see how I can present it a bit firmer...
This is a selection of the colours of the wool I used
This is the wool put on the face... up side down... sorry....
This is the wool felted. Dosn't look too good but it actually came out quite nice.. will put up the finished piece later!
This is the main woodblock..
The finished piece.. using black ink, yellow with a tinge of black to tone down the yellow and orange.
This is the first print.
This is the second stage.
Sorry about the photos... tried my best but I'm getting there!!!!!
I've been experiencing high and lows with the project but at the moment I'm on a bit of a high and excited about what I'm doing.
