Here are the final cuts painted. Looks like a giant watermelon grew out of the ground. I dig it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With these layers, I am able to use them as huge stamps and make prints on paper. Here is my 6th attempt at printing.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"
Here are my many other attempts. In order to make these, I essentially had to learn traditional Japanese woodblock printing. But instead of carving the prints, I laser cut them. The process involves wetting the woodblocks and paper, painting the woodblocks, and then laying the paper on the woodblocks pressing it with a pad. I used burnt wood, printer paper, and acrylic paint. You get out what you put in, I guess. Improvements to be made: make registration marks to easily align the paper to each layer so they match up, invest in better paper that does not dissolve when wet, and use paint that works with water and that does not dry immediately.

Cut 2 out of 3 layers and stacked them. The right side of the mountain has some dead space above it. This is because I didn’t want to waste time engraving, so I cut out. The engraving had a total estimated time of about an hour so I wasn’t trying to be there longer than necessary.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I will be using acrylic paint for this entire project. I am thinking about different colors and possibly a sunset theme. What colors could I paint the mountain, sky, and clouds?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is the mountain that I will be painting. The wood grain has a nice curvature to it that wasn’t planned and I am sad to see it go \ud83d\ude41<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This layer has the clouds raster engraved out. The mountain and label are also removed. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
