" My Selfie Woodcut Plan"

My word/emotion is happiness because I like being happy. Happiness makes people become more compassionate, creative and energetic that reflects to our art works.

My most inspiring printmaker is Kathe Kollwitz beacuse she makes really deep and sad prints which are opposites to my preferences but she's really good at it and I want to be able to do prints like hers.


In my final work I want to make it recognizable without adding much details to it.

My next step is drawing my portrait
