Camden Markets



Camden Markets in London have been another point of visual research informing my project. I came across beautifully hand carved stamps which related really well to my initial theme. 






This has enabled me to think about the idea of stamping as a way of making marks and I want to push the concept of hand processes. It has been a long time since I have experimenting with lino printing but it has worked very successfully as I have been able to achieve an alternative line quality and an opportunity to bring in some texture. Lino stamping allows me to explore the element of positive and negative space as to make marks the surface has to be carved away.  My colour pallet has not been particularly informed in this sample which is something I need to work on for my ideas to progress.
