= Inspired Matisse style landscape project (Silkscreen printmaking) = (Duration: 12th October to 20th November, 2015) = =

In this subunit you will learn the printmaking technique of Silkscreening and its application to studio work (Criterion B). Review your existing paper cutout design and you may modify the visuals further with the concept of "LESS IS MORE". Plan and evaluate the production side of making paper stencils and its colour application to silkscreen printmaking. Examine the number of colour layers and paper stencils will be used to convey a message and achieve a good visual impact (Criterion C and D). You are required to conduct a contextual studies on printmaking artist and his/her work through formal analysis (Criterion A) and appreciation.
