I
had previously considered trying the laser cutter to cut my blocks, but felt
very apprehensive due to my lack of technical IT skills, however I am eager to
compare hand and laser cutting and I will be seeking technical help from the
Mac Help Bar in the near future. I want
to cut a more abstract shape that does not repeat so I can be more experimental
with the layouts.
Fine
artist-printmaker Terry Winters uses lasers to engrave woodblocks for his
abstract prints, the blocks are printed with white ink as a resist, and then
the sheet is rinsed with black ink – a process pioneered by Pablo Picasso. The abstract imagery Terry winters uses
really interests me, I am eager to experiment with designs that don’t look like
conventional wallpaper.
