Smiles in The Sunflower State By:Kenia Diaz For graphic design we had to make a panorama project about a happy memory that we had. for me it was a happy day in the sunflower state. My family and I went to go take pictures in a sunflower patch that made me happy because it gave me an excuse to not be in family pictures and instead take them.  For this project I gathered up 10 or so to take to take and out of those I decided to use my older sister as my subject for the project.

Type of Printing By: Kenia Diaz There are many different types of ways to print and in graphic design we wanted to know what the difference where between relief, intaglio, and lithography printing. Relief Process The first one we are going to talk about is relief process. In relief printing you use types of different woods and metals as well. To print it would would cut out the negative space to define the lines like the actual drawing. Intaglio Process Intaglio printing is the very opposite of relief printing. Unlike relief printing intaglio printing is different because the ink is below the surface of the plate. Many times for the printing surface or the printing space is made of copper, zink, aluminum, magnesium, and sometimes plastic.  Lithography Process  Lithography printing was originally based on the immiscibility of oil and water. Printing originally began with stones and then later evolved into metal plates and smoother surfaces.
