Fun with ink! by @collmail (Collette Mailhot)

Ah! Side 7 finally works for me! For some reason it hasn't been letting me add an image record for the past week and a half. Oo;

Here's what I did in art class! I had to carve out the picture on this stuff called Flexiplate (I could've done wood too, but this was just easier). But I couldn't carve out -everything but- the dark areas (i.e. the stripes, eyes, etc.) so he looks inverted. I messed up my first print (black) and it was all smudgy and such. So I had a spiffy idea, and offset, stamped, and reprinted on top of it in silver ink. That's why it looks like there's a shadow.. or something. Looking at it now, it looks... strange. And crooked.
