Colours selected are purple and yellow, complementary colours on the colour wheel and contrasting especially where shades of the colour work with hues of the complementary colours.
Papers used included cartridge, newspaper and tissue and samples of each are shown
First using tissue and wire to help
The next two using painted cartridge
To develop the spirals further I selected music as the inspiration.
I used some of the images shown in chapter 1, but added others as shown here
I was particularly drawn to string instruments.
The first plain brown cardboard on a gold painted surface
Second cardboard painted one side purple the other yellow stuck to a purple surface
Added a few spiral shavings as cleared the flat surface off the cardboard.
For the monoprinting I would like to develop the images of string instruments, harps and violins, but also bringing in other spirals such as the celtic designs as adapt the initial image (see page 9), and spirals found on musical scores.
I want to manipulate images using the computer but am possibly limited in what I can do.
However I have used a recommended website

and this is what I've achieved so far:
