Erik Olson TBS '08

E.O.3
Orange, Green, and Yellow Ink on Index Paper

As you can see, this print differed very much form the original one that you see across the hall. What Is neat is that although they have this difference, both this print and the one from my original project are each linked together through my face and big smile. One of the first things I hope my viewers would notice about this print is the title, "E.O.3". In this print specifically the title underlines an important meaning to the understanding of my print. In the original prints, or first project, my base color was all orange. When thinking about how I wanted to approach this next project where we were supposed to do more with our prints, I decided I wanted to keep part of the orange and add new colors to make it more attractable to an audience. The title is still related to the original prints through the first color on the left being orange, but then I also added an addition of two new colors, green and yellow. I choose those two colors because they seem to work well together and allow for the print to easily flow across the page
