Hello! My name is Tiana Caple. I'm in the 11th grade, and I'm in Mr. Davis's Art 2 class. We just finished a new project using the Inkle Loom. First we learned to wrap the thread we wanted to use as the warp around the machine. The warp is another word for the color of the strings you've chosen. After that that you weave the string together which is called the weft. That's definitely the easiest part. The hardest part is the warping, because you have to be very careful to do it exactly right. The picture at the bottom is the piece that i made. I think it turned out really good. It didn't take me long to do it. I used pink, purple, and blue. The weft is white. I think this is easier than painting, and much more fun. It's fun, and not that complicated.

Environmental Linocuts in Art 2
Hey. My name is Tiana Caple. I'm in the 11th grade, Class of 2010. I did my Linoleum Block print on nature. We were supposed to do a piece of art that expresses a cause. The meaning to my painting is this: "If you keep the world clean, then you will notice how beautiful it is." At first, we drew our copy on a piece of paper, then we transferred it to the block. Then we carved out the white parts that we wanted to cut out. The hard part was cutting out the little lines around each shape. I thought i was going to kill myself. Luckily I didn't. The easiest part was rolling the black ink on the block and printing four copies on the paper. Doing this project was really cool!
