Screen Printed Sheet Set

Screen print of design from wedding invitation of my cousin.

Shhhh...surprise for them!

Silhouette Series

One color silhouette onesies, using freezer paper stencil..hand painted.

Hand painted Multi Color -- Kid with Toy Series

Here are two more of the hand painted onesies.

Freezer paper stencil -- Second attempt

Method makes it relatively easy for multi color at one time and paint saturation is fairly good. Unfortunately, not able to use the stencil twice. Will be good for prototypes, to execute in other methods, perhaps less colors. Rookie mistake...stenciled on wrong side of garment (was to be on front).

Table Cloth/Curtain Idea

Ok, so multi color print, but not on top of each other! Trying to better my skills at lower level attempt. Still haven't found the right ink, as this one was a bit runny, dripping down on block inopportunely. Print came out ok for this application ("weathered/retro"), but still not to my desire for yardage..want to be able to have dense ink penetration on fabric, not for everything, but, want to be able to control to that degree.

Freezer paper stencil -- First Attempt

Used freezer paper stencil to make design for pillow cover. Able to get some finer lines than foam stamp on lucite, though after application, stencil was not re-usable.

Trying MultiColor Print with Foam on Lucite..still at Icky Stage

Still working on how to make foam prints more consistent ink transfer onto fabric. Many of my attempts have been too uneven. Experimenting with acrylic ink, Golden gac900, and cotton cloth. So far, it looks too icky....rustic is one thing, but, this isn't at the charming point. Granted the colors are a bit harsh, and too much contrast on white, but, the print quality is not good. It was 95 degrees when I was doing this, so, that might have made ink dry too quickly on foam.
