For my second gamification project I choose to print make. For this project I used many different tools such as a carver, carving board, roller, pressing tool, and tray. First I got a chunk of linoleum. I then found the design I wanted on the internet. As you can see I chose a pineapple. I then traced the pineapple really hard onto the linoleum. After that I heated up the linoleum with a hair dryer. Then I started to carve into it. after everything was carved out, I got paper then inked it up and started to print. The thing I disliked most about this project was how long it took my to carve everything. As I was making this I was really excited, because pineapples are very cool! I have a pineapple phone case so that was sort of my inspiration. If I would change or do anything differently I would have carved out the pineapple better and taken more time for quality work. |
