ex libris


my finished ex libris image to be printed on the risograph machine. the aim of this part of our workshops was to understand cmyk, colour separations and how colours are mixed when transferred into print. quite complicated to get your head around at first but i think i understand it now. i’ve made it pretty busy as it’s just a test card image so mostly i was just trying out different layering combinations with random images from my sketchbooks. the black lines are going to be gold, the pink is going to be pink and the cyan is going to be green, the purple is where the pink and cyan layers have overlapped. it’s gonna be printed at A6 size. i'm pretty happy because before illustrator used to make me pretty angry and now it's kind of my friend and we get along so that's good.
