February Project: Repousse Lizards

Project description:
  • Each student chose a lizard to transfer into tooling foil with a special focus on texture and design.  Interesting lizard facts were discovered while researching each lizard.  The "relief effect" is achieved by tracing sketches into foil twice while pressing against newspaper.  A special tool is used to stretch foil textures, further creating obvious textural changes.  Permanent markers added color to this work.
Art Materials:
  • Tooling Foil
  • Permanent Markers
Examples of Student work:
