Intaglio Designs

A further page from the sketchbook exploring the technique of 'intaglio'. I found it useful to learn about different ways to create effects, such as using sandpaper over the image to add texture. I also experimented with 'Chine colle', where the addition of a scrap of material is used to give another dimension and colour. To create atmosphere, I used PVA glue to make a shape and let it dry, which gives the illusion of light and shadow. These ways of mark-making are things I want to incorporate into my design work in future projects.
