Paint Chip Prints - 2019

A project brief wanted to me to present a collection of things in an informative way; one of the examples of a collection said "all the white paint swatches from Home Depot." I took it as a challenge, and printed selections from The Nomenclature of Color and a Reddit AMA focused on paint names. To properly print on an inkjet printer, trial and error drove me to mount the swatches on cardstock and switch swatches around to find out which swatches accepted ink best.

Special thanks to Professor River Jukes Hudson, whose sense of humor in her mellow tone of voice made it enjoyable to watch the ink on paint dry.
