Sun Prints

This is an easy little project I did in my printmaking class.
My teacher calls it sun-printing, but I don't think that's the actual name for it. They're made by placing objects on top of light-sensitive paper and then placing them in water and drying them.

My class is going to eventually make a cube out of the six prints, which I'll post when I complete it, but here they are so far.
My objects were plastic animal cut-outs my teacher had.


The animals, going from right, down, to left and up: a water bird and a fish, an elephan with plants, a beetle and butterfly, two fish, two lizards, and a kangaroo and a dingo.
