Printing techniques

For printing onto 3D objects such as the ornaments, there are 3 printing techniques which I think would work best:

-Giclee – inkjet based digital print (can use ink, acrylic, or oil paint)
-Screen printing - a mesh stencil technique
-Stenciling



Laser cutting would probaby be best for cutting into the materials, as it is precise and accurate.


Material options:
wood - Enhances the nature vibes

metal - Metal wire can easily be shaped. Sheet metal is reminiscent of some of the scultpures

plastic - Can be cut into, melted, and shaped. Can have a wide variety of colours

ceramics - Gives a homely feel.
