Linoleum Print

Linoleum Print
I carved this print using a sketch I drew then transferred to the linoleum block.  I used black ink to transfer the print to paper.  I put the print on handmade paper that I made.

I used pencil for this drawing.  I worked off a picture of the railroad tracks in Smith Center.  The goal of this drawing was to work on perspective.

I used tempera paint for this painting.  I started with the color red and used different colors without washing out my brush to get the various colors.

Cat Eye Chalk Drawing

First, I drew the placement of the eye and nose.  Then I used the chalk to blend the yellows and greens and browns to make the eye color.  I used all black chalk with white chalk on top to get the whiskers and fur.
