Mood-board and Research Inquiry:
My research process included an in-depth investigation on some printmaking masters (particularly those living in South Africa) such as Georgina Gratrix, Heidi Fourie and Diane Victor. This research helped me to grasp the new techniques as well as inspired my making process.

Watercolour Monotype
This was my favourite printmaking method; definitely a means of making that I want to explore further.
Collographs
By sending some collected objects, material, soil, flowers and feathers through the printing press; you are able to create the most interesting textures
