I started to experiment more with Lino print and layering it with acrylic paint to create more depth. To create more pattern I used tape to make sharper straight lines, which I feel worked really well and with the print on top made an interesting effect. With adding more thicker spreads of acrylic and printing on top, it created a bumpy and distorted look, reminding me of a glitch in a computer or finger print. However I wanted to exaggerate it more, so I made swirls of thicker paint and then proceeded to print on top. The outcome of this was really successful and I would like to then print negative through the printer to see the outcome and colours of it. In experimenting with the thicker materials I had Pia Fries in mind and would to look more into her work and her use of negative space and colour.
