Screen printing





Had a great time screen printing. Really happy with my outcomes, and I feel pretty ready to do my finals now. I realised when I was printing that i definitely need to allow myself time to make mistakes. Things do go wrong. Quite a few of my prints didn't come out as id intended.


What I want to do now is add a little more detail into the second layer, so the black. I need to consider the background colour, and what stock I'm going to use. At the moment I like the coloured ones or the off white, want to use really good stock for a maximum quality print. I think i'll do loads of variations when I'm in the print room just so that I get the best possible outcome.

Things I've learnt from this session and what I need to do:

- I like having a big border. So my final prints will be a3 in size but on a2 paper. 
- Allow time for mistakes.
-Add a little more detail into the prints. 
-This work is so so different from all of my past work and I love it! Need to stop being afraid of being different and creating work I actually love making.
