The Design Process I Used... 

Step 1: Mono Printing. I started with mono printing techniques to create many, many prints of various colors and color palettes. Acrylic paint, a brayer, and a gelli plate was used for this part of the process. 

Step 2: Sorting. I went through all of the prints, organizing and deciding which colors were most alluring at the time. I selected a final color palette as well as an overall design for this piece. 

Step 3: Cutting & Arranging. This step was all about cutting, tearing, arranging and gluing each piece to a gallery cradle board.
