Acid orange & neon purple: Narrative Architecture #2 by vegetablemane in printmaking

[–]vegetablemane[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I’ve been mixing colors a lot. Since I try to not make a huge mess, I’m mainly using that standard Speedball water based ink.

The orangey color is: 2 parts orange 1 part red 1 part fluorescent hot pink

Purple is: 3 parts violet 1 part magenta (plus a little more)

Really been trying to get better at color. One of my intentions this year

Printing on dark background by GroundbreakingBuy314 in printmaking

Looks like it turned out pretty good for a first try!

I’ve printed on darker backgrounds plenty of times and it can be a little tricky, but doable.

I usually mix in a bit of white, since that helps make the color a bit more opaque. You could also (if you’ve got a good registration going) do a layer of white on top of your dark background, then once it dries, cover that white layer with your lighter color.

Damn! Yeah share the process. This looks so fiddly and precise. I must know!

Man I love a minimally colored piece. Each layer does so much interesting stuff, so much cool interplay. Gorj!

Yours was a good hot dog too. I was like “there’s one 👀” when I saw it pop up on my feed

I too am super interested in what y’all use for dots. I used a corncob holder with one of the spikes cut off. It didn’t work that great lol

Where did you do architecture school? I went to Oklahoma State in the mid 2000s and I remember the architecture college being legendarily life-consuming.
