I chose this course as the second level 1 course towards an OCA Creative Arts Degree because the creative process involved in printing is different to that with painting. With my paintings I have an initial idea from sketches and preparatory work of what I want to do but there is always a further dimension to the creative process which is the spontaneous and instant evaluation and adjustment one makes as one paints.
With printing I sense there is more scope for graphic design because there isn't as much that can be changed once print is put to paper.
So I want to find out if this is the case and to see how far I can take printing in creating expressive images. Can I print as well as I can paint?
I also want my printing to compliment my watercolours so that both strands of my work exist as part of the same thing. As I progress through the degree I want to do so as a painter/printmaker.
