How to Print Picture steps can teach you how to print.
You will need: • Ink • Styrofoam sheet (printing plate) • Roller • Paper • Glass sheet or laminated sheet • Spatula
The first layer: • Draw your monster or design on a sheet of paper. • Trace your design onto a sheet of tracing paper. • Draw over the design on the tracing paper, and make sure the styrofoam sheet is underneath so it presses through. • Take the foam sheet and trace over your design so there are deeper marks but not too deep. • Put some ink onto the laminated paper and use the roller to spread it out. • Keep rolling the ink around until it makes a tacky sound. • Make sure it is an even layer. • Put the ink onto the styrofoam sheet and even it out so there is a smooth layer. • Place your sheet of paper on top and press it with your hand. • Move in circle motions and only use the center of your hand. • Don’t use your knuckles. • Slowly remove the paper but do not remove it in a diagonal way. Remove it from the top so it doesn’t get scrunched up. • Put your paper on the drying rack or just let it dry. • Wash your styrofoam sheet and pick another ink colour and repeat.
The second layer: • (After first layer is dry) • Draw some more detail of your design on your styrofoam sheet. • Make sure it is deep enough through the sheet but not too deep. • Roll more ink but in a different colour onto your styrofoam sheet. • Make sure it is an even layer. • Place the styrofoam sheet as accurately as possible. • Turn it over so the paper is on top. • Move your hand in circle motions with the center of your hand and not with your knuckles. • Slowly remove the paper from the sheet and you will see two different colours on your paper. • Dry your paper. • Wash your styrofoam sheet and repeat all these steps again (the ones for the second layer).
