print day
recenly i got the urge to try some screen printing, mainly as a result of looking through Committed To Cloth books - mick made me some good solid frames which i finished off with curtain voile and lavish use of the staple gun
the aim was to try deconstructed/breakdown printing a la jane dunnewold, so i prepared two screens with dye paste and off i went - i though it was going to be really tricky and fraught with complications but.... it wasn't .... and i'm really pleased with my first attempts - they're nothing sensational but it's nice to try a technique which give interesting results so quickly
and it also lends itself so well to digital manipulation
