My first screenprints

today i did my first experimentation with drawing fluid to create a screen for printing. I applied the drawing fluid with a brush as if painting. the fluid was a nice blue. i let it dry and then covered the screen with this red liquid called screen filler, and then waiting for that to be dry. The filler resisted wherever i had painted on the drawing fluid. When i rinsed out the screen filler only the screen fabric that had the drawing fluid on it stayed clear.

This was super fun...cant wait to try this screen on shirts and bags and stuff. I will have to make a trip to goodwill tomorrow to find some things to try the print on.

...sorry for the crappy pictures/comp. i should have a scan of those first two screenprints ready sometime soon.
