Typography & Printing

Making a few notes on the types of Printing.

There are 2  types of Printing: Intaglio & Relief.

Intaglio is when the required print work is cut as a groove on the printing surface.
It includes: Engraving, Etching, Aquatint

Relief is when the remaining un-needed section of the printing surface is shaved away.
It includes: Woodcutting.

Some other types:
Lithography is based on the principle that water and grease repel each other.
Screen-printing includes a screen (duh) that has gum-raisin applied to the non-reqd surface and then placed above paper. Ink is applied on the other end.

Why a Second Blog?

Blogging is sort of a familiar activity to me now (though, not so regular).

This second blog is mainly to motivate me to learn and progress in the Design-area.
By the end, I hope to independently design cool stuff. 
Tbh, I've no idea about my goals.


The inspiration is: this article.

I'll try my best to keep this blog updated daily. In other words, I wanna be a regular reader and strict follower of only the above article, purely. 

Usually, I do nothing else, so why not give this a try.

I abandon most of my challenges very early and the lessons that I've learnt:
Unrealistic daily expectations and apathetic goals.

"I'll only do what I love" 
"Only so much of it, that I can, right now."
