I printed to my hearts content today. I only managed to get prints done from one of the three plates and I haven’t finished printing from that one yet. It’s going to be expensive to get them all done. But the results were pleasing. I’m not sure what I’m going to use yet though. When I printed these ones up last week I preferred the coloured prints to the black and white ones, but I thought the second run of the inked plate had a nicer result than the first run, but when I looked at them again today I just don’t know. I’ll have to have a think, at least they’re at home now so I can keep going to have a look at them.
The third years came to the print room for a meeting this afternoon, a couple of collaborative projects were discussed of which I’m interested in both and Michelle is going to be showing the students how to make and bind hard back books in May. I learnt this in my third year but I’m hoping to go along and get a refresher in it. I have bound many books since then but I’m sure I’m not stitching them right.
Back in print again tomorrow. Time seems so precious right now. Because I work three days I only have two days a week that I can go to college and there aren’t many days left. I’m making the most of it while I still can.
