Flower screen printing

I spent the morning at Bainbridge Studios in south London making this print. It went well in terms of the colours and the registration, AND I managed not to rub my hair on the screen for once, so no hairy prints! Spring flowers - an invocation I hope - it's pretty gross outside today.

Screen printing ideas

I did some screen printing on Monday, trying to get away from my standard palette of dark orange, black and red - which always seems to be the colours I print for cats, of which I've printed many...

This was a mixed success - I overprinted the pink on the green, and sadly it wasn't as translucent as I'd meant, which meant I ended up with too much pink and a weird balance. BUT it was enthusiasm-firing, and I'm going back next week for another shot. 



I want to do something with quite a lot of the dark dark brown.

Perhaps skunks in tutus, or perhaps not...!
