Printed Papers - DT - Mo1Ch2 - b - Image 2.0 

•  Having decided to go with the rounded edge cross design from my earlier sketchbook research, I carved part of the design into a carving block

• I started using a designated print carving tool but found that I achieved more control over the rounded curves with a scalpel.

• the top left section shows the progression of the rough cut stamp design and the finer details achieved whilst using a scalpel until the final cross design print block 
• several arrangements were tried to see how the part would fit as a whole
• a sponged background paper provided contrast

• varying the direction and spacing of the print block to achieve a variety of pattern design both with close spacing and elongated spacing

• using some of my soft sponged papers I took 2 complimentary colours of pinkish orange and bluish grey to vary the design

• I experimented with only partially inking up the print block and then using the remaining part to colour in a different hue
