New week at Campus Notodden, new course  – fun course!

We started our new spring semester the 5th (of January). A new course (7,5 university points) in graphic letterpress (Google translation) which means that we learn about linoleum and the process to make a pattern, lazer cutting with a inkscape program – really funny to work in!

Lazer cutting in pdf has been fun, interesting learning and a new area for me to get to know as a becoming art and (craft) design teacher!

Here are my lazer cutting patterns. The first try, which I liked, but it’s a bit hard to see the mushroom roots πŸ˜• in the lower part  = the soil.

The second lazer cutting pattern;

The whole process of learning this is so we as becoming teachers can use this in teaching.  I thought that mushroom is something I can bring into art and design through other subjects too. And it is so many way’s to learn about mushroom for whatever age group I teach.

Didn’t have time to try the negative pattern before we were done for the day on Friday.

From Monday morning until Friday including the travelling home. We got more and more snow 🌨🌨🌨, here’s a mix of the snowy view this week.
