Matariki Printing

 


Hi this is my Matariki Print. We had to get a regular A4 piece of paper and drew a Matariki design on. We used this is our draft. We had to reverse the image that we were using so it would print the correct way. Then we got a piece of A4 foam. We had to lightly draw on our design. The only thing was the foam was very easy to get holes and defects on it and if you had a hole or a chip taken out of is it would show on the final product. Then we had to take it into our Maker Space were we got our foam block and ink. There was heaps of different colours of ink. We had a roller that we rolled in the ink and onto the foam. Then we had to put the foam with the ink onto a piece of A3 paper. You could do as many as you liked you just had to wash and dry the foam. Next we had to make a frame. We had to use a stencil the teachers made and trace around the inside of it. Then we had to get a ruler and craft knifes and carefully cut the inside of the A3 paper. Once we finished that we cut the extra paper of our picture. Then we glued the frame to the picture then we were done. Have you ever done printing before? Bye!
