I must not have gotten all the ink out of the screen. There is a shadow from the previous image. I didn’t use the markers i just put the paper over in thirds and did 12,11 and 10 minutes. I definitely will use the markers as intended if and when i do it again. It’s…
So I couldn’t get my printer to recognize the inkjet sheets, it refused to print on it. So that sucks, I tried to print on my old little cannon ink jet too and it wouldn’t come out black, It was only printing in dark purple. I printed like 6 times over and it was still…
Well, we exposed our screen for 11 minutes, then sat it down in the sun for about 15 seconds while preparing to wash it out. It would not wash out with the garden hose sprayer. took it to the car wash, some of the emulsion came out, but it was stripping away areas that were…
I played around with Inkscape outlining images of ancestors and language. Learned a lot about how much there is to learn from this process. We weren’t sure how to digitize Lisa’s sketch design so she decided to try to trace it out using the pen’s, but it didn’t burn through the exposure. Not…
Test Screen Emulsion coating went well on both screen, found that “Stay Calm Emulsion On ” is the secret to smooth emulsion sliding! Are we supposed to have two screen types? we have two 156. I though we had a finer one for this type of print? Burnt well and seemed to print just as…
I worked on a design a while ago with the intention of screen printing so all I had to do was tidy it up, size it properly, convert grays to a shading technique (I used 50% threshold for black versus white), and then print the film. I could not find anywhere to get the film…
It was an exciting challenge to make these two colour prints on two tshirts and five aprons. There was a few corrections I had to make when printing because certain parts were not lining up perfectly so i had to tape spots off to allow it to dry and reprint the missing parts so it…
My reclaiming went ok but my hand drawn exposure is still not quite there. I moved my light a bit higher as my measurements were off the first time. i lost some lines again. I will have to play with exposure time and maybe try a different approach. Also I was still able to pull…
This was really cool doing a collage and India ink drawing and then printing on a shirt. It was my first experience printing on fabric and it was really cool to see it work out. I think also my exposure was pretty decent but my wash out could have been a little better because some…
