Riso Workshop results

I would love to reproduce this print and correct the mistake I made so the yellow is shown through on the left side of the main circle as well as the right. one day I may get into a risograph workshop...

The first colour of the 2 colour risograph

My second riso print which was 3 colours. I didn't come as prepared for this one and don't like it as much as the first. I am annoyed i cut out the letters of the word Devil and spaced them as it distorts the word. I did use real butterflies that my dad had found and sent me over the years from the states. Unfortunately they did get slightly crushed from the machine, but amazing detail.

Some of the butterflies close up. 

 I just liked this piece of the riso print on its own. A photograph of my grannies roses.

Riso Workshop

 Yesterday I had the absolute joy of taking part in a riso workshop run by @womartsproject and taught by @fionaquillprints . This was my first time working with riso and had never really heard of the process until now. It really is a fun and great process. The workshop was very relaxing and a great way to get the brain working. I'd love to give it another go now that I have a bit of an idea of what to do and what I was doing wrong. My prints seemed to be the least 'feminist' or at least not focused on womans rights compared to the rest.....didn't think there was a brief but I suppose being a womans art group it was probably the natural direction, naturally I went my own.
Will post prints after this post.
