Element Print Project 2011

The element ​I was assigned for my element project was potassium.Two things my element is used for is fertilizer and it is in bananas.I came up with this print idea by researching and I found out that if you mix potassium with water it explodes.The first step I took in order to make this a final print was to draw my sketch in my sketch book. The second step I was to trace my sketch onto the tracing paper. The third step was to Trace it onto the linoleum block and cut out the positive or the negative space. I chose positive space. Then I just printed my linoleum block. I thought that this project was very fun. If I were to do this project over again I would spend more time making my prints look nice.
