Triangular Elements

This series of printed triangles came from my research using transparent color. I was exploring how the build up of colors creates new colors and for this particular series texture was a new added element. Choosing to display these prints all together was a thought during the curatorial process. By displaying these all together I gave myself another chance to explore the composition of the combined prints. It now becomes a larger finished piece of work and becomes one piece of work instead of multiples. Generally in printmaking, the artist tries to make each print the exact same, thus making it a series. Here, no one print is alike, depicting the exploration of color, texture, and composition. The viewer is able to see my thought pattern throughout the printmaking process.
