Experimental scans - move Lino print whilst scanning Â
Experiment by creating repeat patterns Â
In the lesson you should aim to produce at least 5 different digital experiments based on your lino print. Make sure you print out your digital experiments and add to your sketchbook or upload them to your blog. You should also evaluate your work, identifying strengths and areas for developments‌.talk about how you have considered colour / composition / shapes etc and how the prints link to your theme Â
