This is my new blog, as required by my new painting class at Towson. Hopefully updating will be fun, so I would keep updating Artists that I like.

Non-Press
Non-press is probably the most straight forward "printing" process in which you place a paper on rolled out ink and draw your image from the back. This process allows ease of tracing, or doing quick marks. Things to keep in mind would be the thickness of the papers changes how the line will appear, such as thinner paper allows a more crisp line, while a thicker paper has thick fuzzy lines that come out. Another thought to consider is how thick the ink is rolled out, thin layers come out lighter then drawing on thick ink, but thin layers of ink create less noise, while thick ink creates a lot of noise from the pressure of gravity. While speaking of noise, just be careful to not put your hand or other pressure on the paper, because it will show up.
