Screenprinting on Saturday

The printing room.
Since I was woefully unprepared with my own artwork, I chose a beautiful drawing by Daniel Libeskind.
The silk screens.
Preparing to shoot the image.
Shot image on screen.
Pouring ink for printing.
Printing in one fell swoop.
Ta-da! Finished print on stock paper. It only took 7 hours to get to this point.
Test prints on paper.
Test print on a t-shirt.
Though the photos look quite succinct, in reality the process was painfully long and laborious. Hours on your feet, mixing, washing, pouring. It was art in its true form. The end result was super cool.

Very cool!
Thanks Orhan. I can’t see your blog anymore though
It is down until I have time to remove all Army-related stuff from it. A bunch of soldiers found it and that will only lead to problems in the future. It’ll be back soon enough. Ain’t the first time its been on hiatus
I was actually wondering how you could get away with all that stuff. Guess you couldn’t huh?
I haven’t gotten in trouble and I wasn’t sharing sensitive information (names, places, dates, etc) but its not worth chancing.
And where have you disappeared to now?
