Description

This peace was actually an assignment in art class. We were doing relief prints using linoleum and black ink our teacher said she wanted us to show display some emotion in our print. During the rough draft part of this peace I wasn’t planning on doing it and getting another F so I sat at a mirror and did a self portrait. The self portrait I did was simple enough that I was able to make it in one color relief so I started working on it I was one of the first ones done and I’ve always liked this peace. For about a month I was able to get my mind off of everything because the me in the print was thinking about it. When our teacher choose my print to be displayed at the local court house for an exhibit I didn’t have a name for it yet so as a joke I said “call it stuff cause he’s like thinking of stuff” everyone laughed so the name stuck.

certain aspects of it look more graphic like the hair which creates a little bit of inconsistency within the image. the whole thing probably would look more graphic if not for the carved out areas of the body that got inked. if you don't want these you could try to carve them out a little more as well as use a larger, harder roller.
