1/4/2011 Just So Exciting.....

Life is just far too busy at the moment but being organised helps a lot. But anyways it's time to share my screen prints from last monday! I'm not going to lie, i was extremely excited when i woke up on monday morning, i'd never done screen printing before so i was itching to get started.


The print studio wasn't even busy, those slackers who are on my course made life in the studio sooo easy. I set up my table with inks and air vacuum with tape and paper, retrieved my silk screens and started printing. I started with one colour just to get to grips with the technique and then i got more confident. I started producing massive amounts of prints and may of got carried away. I showed caroline my days work and she told me to be careful and not churn them out like a robot and start to think about different moods and colours. So i slowed down and started to think more about what the ink was doing and how to apply it to the page. Below are the masterpieces.... annoyingly i only managed to get photos of them rather than scans.






These photos just show the applying of the ink to the screen.
