Silhouette Printing for Art!

Another amazing project for Art!! Making silhouette prints!

Materials: Paper, Paint, Exacto Knife, Cardboard, Heavy books(or any other heavy objects)

Steps on how to make silhouette prints:

1- Choose a easy picture that can be cut out on cardboard. I used a duck as my silhouette print, however I had many other drawing options. 

2- Trace it out on paper and then draw it on cardboard.

3- Cut out the drawing from the cardboard.

4- Choose a colour and paint the drawing that's cut out from the cardboard. 

5- Then, place the drawing on paper and put heavy objects on the paper to get a good print for 2-5 minutes. 

6- After, take off the books/heavy objects and carefully take the drawing off from the paper. 



7- You just made a silhouette print!!!
To make more prints, repeat the steps.
