Print Making Sketches



1. Why is texture so important to have in your sketches?

It creates a contrast from the background and your animal.  When inking, contrast is very important because it is just one color, and your animal will blend in with the background.


2. Why is it necessary for you to have several references of each animal and each background? Explain.
So you can get more ideas of how that animal or background looks.  You can see the animal from all sides and get a good idea of how to draw the texture into the animal.

3. When you look at your sketches are you able to see which sketch is the strongest and will make the best print? How do you know this? 

I think that the butterfly will make the best print, because with the other sketches, the backgrounds are further away and I don't think that solid lines are going to show the texture.  Also, I love butterflies, and I really want to use the butterfly for the print. :DD
