Etching Sculptures

2011-06-14T15:11:00.007-04:00

I spent a good portion of this semester researching, printing, and constructing a series of three dimensional paper sculptures. The printing was done with etched zinc plates and a technique called a la poupee'. Ill post better pictures soon. These are just crummy cell phone pictures. This is only half of the finished sculptures.

Screen printed decals on ceramics

2011-06-14T14:39:00.012-04:00

Here are some cell phone pictures of a project I worked on this semester. I screen printed with ceramic stains onto decal paper and then wrapped and fired them onto Doug Fertig's ceramic pottery. The process was a learning experience for both of us. I hope to work more with him in the future.

Anthony

Ask us to play! we'll probably do it!

This is an installation called The Alligators I did for my media intervention class. It was a band I made up, meant to be about the idea of a performance piece. My friend Anthony and I wore these screen-printed alligator costumes while performing for the class. The piece was meant to be absurd and was meant to test the patients of an adult crowd of artists. Some people laughed, others were creeped out. I thought it was funny.

Final Installation

2010-12-16T13:14:00.009-05:00

This is a box-like installation that I made for my media intervention class. The outer line work was made by carving the surface of the wood, inking it up like a wood block relief print and then letting the ink fill the grooves while I washed it off. the white part aren't really complete. Its basically just a primer layer. I want to hand paint the entire thing when I get a chance.

The box is more of a small contained gallery space than a traditional installation. Its basically a tiny dark room made for exhibiting ultra violet ink prints. I plan on making a bunch more UV ink prints in the near future.
At first I was like..
Then I was like...

Hello!

2010-12-14T17:54:00.004-05:00

This piece is for a print exchange involving transformations. It's a six layer silkscreen. The final layer is printed in invisible UV ink that can only be seen with a black light. i'll take a picture of it with the black light on it soon.

Im not really happy with any of these pieces but I thought I'd post them anyways.

Stencil Monotypes.

Trace Monotypes.

Want to see more of me?

2010-12-12T03:59:00.003-05:00

Print me out and build me! the image should be just large enough for a piece of xerox paper. I didn't make directions, but it should be pretty self explanatory. Cut out the outer outlines and fold the inner line. Put small slices just above the arm pit hair and insert the arm tabs. I have to credit paper foldables for the inspiration and the idea. They're incredible and you should check them out!

Carl is back

2010-12-12T03:21:00.008-05:00

This print is just the BAT. I'm working on a nicer version on different paper. I made this print for an exchange call "Things are not what they appear". Five layers of photo lithography.

This is the original piece made for an exquisite corpse print exchange. Check it out!

Experimental Etchings

2010-11-30T16:20:00.007-05:00

These are just some etchings I had to do for class. I don't really do much etching these days but I tried to have fun with it.
I colored these three prints with a technique called a la poupee. It didn't work out perfectly but I thought it was interesting.

I made this print with a recycled zinc plate. I open etched it till all the previous information was gone and then scraped the bubbles and scratches off until it was smooth. I worked ok but I wouldn't recommend it. You're better off just buying a new plate.

Foldables

2010-11-13T17:04:00.008-05:00

Self Portrait.

Zombie Vs. Robot = Frienemies

Im working on a series of paper foldables. I made them for a media intervention project. I think they came out pretty well. I'm becoming more interested in three dimensional printmaking. These are just cell phone pics from the installation. I'll post some better ones soon.

Pronto Plate 2 "Nice 2 Meet U"

Polyester Pronto Plates!

2010-09-21T14:27:00.005-04:00

I was given a polyester pronto plate the other day. this is my new favorite way to print. it's extremely fast and easy. The plate requires no processing at all. You simply draw on the plate, wet it, ink it, print it! You can draw on the plate with anything. Paint marker, sharpy, ball point pen, crayons, etc.. It will all show up with beautiful detail. The only draw back is the quality of the prints will degrade as you print, so you can only make about twenty nice ones before you start to loose detail. I would recommend this technique to all printmakers. More pronto plate printing coming soon!

second stone litho.

2010-09-21T14:23:00.002-04:00

I used grease from my face to block in value. All the noses are black because I use my nose grease to etch the stone. I then use corn-crayons to add lines and detail.

Space is a wonderful place.

2010-08-31T16:46:00.002-04:00

This piece was for a print exchange. In the exchange, each of us picked a fortune cookie and we had to make a print based on our fortune. My fortune was "you are about to embark on a most delightful journey". I wish I had added another color. It looks unfinished to me.

The Jolly Rancher

2010-08-31T16:42:00.003-04:00

T-shirt design. The original image is yellow and was printed on brown hand died shirts. I made this for all my friends at the Dude Ranch. If they have any pictures of the actual shirt they should send them to me!

"History of Violins"

2010-08-31T16:20:00.004-04:00

This is just a portion of the final print. The scanner i'm using is too small for the entire thing. You get the general idea.
