Alt means – mark making

On the second half of the fourth day of alt means, we were asked to make 12 mark making tools in roughly an hour the make marks on a page with them with paint.

Below is the development of the mark making and the finished marks along with the tools:

Mark making tools:

I think the marks my mark making tools made were interesting even if I had a little bit of trouble trying to find enough different things to make into mark making tools. I made sure to use matchsticks and/or masking tape on each tool so it was clear they belonged to the same set of tools.

If I had had more time to make them, I would have found something longer than the matchsticks to use as the handle of the tools as it would have made them easier to use.
