Timber engraving. Transforming mutiple mask layers into a composition.

Project Description

Whilst brainstorming ideas, I felt motivated to produce a few projects for the Ilen school. This being one of them. The image contains 4 different layers of assets ranging from lines plans to sail layouts. Whilst creating a working scaled mask for my illustrator working files. I realized their potential as a stand alone engraving. I used multiple jpg images available via a Google search of the AK Ilen project. By isolating the lines from each image, I was able to create vectored assets. I then compiled theses on top of each other in an aesthetic arrangement. My ambition was to engrave it upon an original piece of the Ilen. My thoughts where that these plaques could be presented to patrons of the charity as an expression of gratitude.
