Onion Printing.

Onion Printing. 

I got the idea to use and onion to print with from our drawing days we often do things that I never normally think about when it comes to drawing. I was looking at the onion and thinking about how certain aspects of it remind me of a brain all the lines running through it and the fact when you cut it you can see all the layers. The layers remind of the different sections of the brain. I cut into the layers along the layers to define the lines more. After printing it with ink I think used ink again to draw on top of my prints adding more detail and shadowing etc. I really like the look of the prints the have a very delicate but graphic look to them and I feel the defiantly look like brain scans. I really want to develop this way of creating drawings and develop using this technique later on.
