Does your apron look like this? I used mine as the tester from my graphics….looks so cool with acrylic and spray paint evidence, and now silkscreen don’t you think? Aprons, like the scratch paper on your work surface, tell alot about us. (I hope you’re saving your scratch paper for your journal – that stuff is priceless!!)
Are you making stuff for the holidays? Every Tuesday for 9, or was it 10, weeks I’ve been taking a silk screen printing class. I finally got good at it and it’s over! At the beginning I made a real mess of the printing. Might sign up for the next session because I have so much more stuff I wanna make. I may even get myself one of those desk top screenprinting things so I can keep making these shirts. We used a photographic process to make the stencils. Lower left one was made last night. Before you ask, I’m not going to sell these….but I might be giving some away *wink*.
I took these with my cellphone because I forgot my camera again! Check out Susanna measuring and making her print all even and perfect. I was a little less precise. Bill, our instructor, said he’d never had students (like me and S) who turned out so many shirts. Hey, we knew how to make the most of our time.
I wish I would have made this one bigger. I put it on the back of a hoodie and it looks a little small. Note to self for next session: GET BIGGER.
