Printmaking

Printmaking 

Printmaking is the process of creating pictures or prints from specific blocks or plates usually on paper. It is very important because is has allowed for many different artists to find their place and passion in this art form. Printmaking has also integrated itself into modern culture for example grafitti, which is actually a form of printmaking.

In this picture you see a mystic man - or something chilling with four arms with a background of leaves. The first thing I notice is the beautiful contrast between the dark parts of the picture and the light parts that ultimately create it. The picture has some realistic elements the arms, hands, and leaves that are then complemented with by the abstractness of the four hands and the face and mouth. I think the painting is about a human rising to a level about that like godlike or something. I think the painting is okay because although it is interesting you can't really tell what's happening
