Print Series Statement

For the first image in my print series I incorporated the words restaurant, sister and pen from the series of random words that I chose. The print contains the image of a girl in a pen and ink like design sitting in a café. I felt that the image had a whimsical feeling so I decided to work with that. I incorporated different patterns and bright colors as well. The swirling pattern is meant to mimic the smoke from the tea. I used the image of a girl holding an object surrounded by various designs for the following two prints.

The second image has a similar red and white pattern in the bottom corner to transition from the first print. It uses more yellow and brown coloring to enhance the candlelight. The girl also has a similar drawn design but transitions to black and white. I attempted to have patterns similar to the previous images but unique to the print.

The third image has another image of a girl with an object in her hand. She is in black and white like the previous image. The design has much more yellow and brown similar to the candlelight in the second image. The patterns become more floral as if she was looking at them through the magnifying glass. I wanted to incorporate whimsical and colorful patterns in all three images and primarily work with that.
