dry point. (drawing for illustration.)

This is the first dried print I did. To create this we had to use a water-based acrylic ink. But first we started off by scratching in our designs that we created into the plastic which we then used the water-based ink on the plastic where we had scratched our design and rubbed it in using a mesh fabric cloth called Brillo. We then used a new brillow cloth to take the excess ink off of the stamp we created and then we put it on a piece of paper and sent it through the press. The press then pressed the image into the paper.
This last print is called a ghost print which is where you don't had any more ink you just print it again with whatever's left from the last print. I like the ghost print but I prefer the first print I did as it's more opaque.
