Experimenting with alternative materials

First of all, thank you so much for this inspiring class.

Now, I didn’t have printing blocks at hand but I wanted to try what I’ve learned, so I used some alternative materials I had at home.

I glued a layer of thin foam to a piece of plexiglass and then I carved the shape with a thin x-acto knife.

I used acrylic colors rather than ink: it’s not ideal, yet it can create some interesting effects.

I’m happy with the result even though is not perfect or precise at all.

of course I will continue to experiment and improve my patterns.
