Fox Print

Polystyrene Put to Use

Ahhh. 
Art.
It's been a while since I got to creating something.
My eldest daughter and I have started experimenting with print-making, so I took advantage of this time, to get my own creative energy flowing.
We had been sketching on mural paper taped to the floor. 
I often leave this out for a few days and little sketches are added turning it into a large brainstorm. 
I was using shapes to make creatures, when I designed a Fox out of triangles. 
Later in the day, when we were testing out polystyrene for print-making, I etched the Fox.
We used an Olive sampler tub of paint from Home Depot, meant to test or touch up wall colour.
I placed the print in the center of large card stock, the results looking decent enough to frame.
