Screen Printing Grows in Brooklyn


A friend of mine asked me a few weeks ago if I'd be interested in taking a workshop in screen printing and I had to jump at the chance to do it! I've ALWAYS wanted to learn but never got around to trying. Well, this time I didn't let the chance pass me by! Below are the pics of my friend and I (I'm the one taking the pics lol) paired off and working on our little screen printed apple with a cute surprise in it!! I'll definitely be investing in screen printing supplies soon....


My friend cutting out our design after I drew it out with a black marker on freezer paper. 

 
A close up of my friend cutting one of the two layers we're working with. 


Here's the first color going down....


Such a juicy red apple!!!!


We were quite adventurous in applying our design on an old pillow case cut up. My friend is quite crafty and will be making fruit bags! So cute! lol


Lunch time! Fish tacos and two blueberry concoctions (each!) to quench our thirst on a hot July day. 


Lining everything up (registering) so our green doesn't end up off the page or canvas.


Final product! Too cute lol
