I learned how to screenprint! Friend and fellow artist extraordinaire Kathy Jaller graciously set up a hands on workshop in her studio this weekend, and we all had a blast.
We had a session yesterday and today, learning how to stretch, prep, and burn screens. I made a screen of City Walker and Dive, and started experimenting on paper. Next week will be devoted to printing (shirts maybe?). I just printed the robot today, but I'm looking forward to seeing how the fish looks when I try it out next week!

Awesome! I'm dying to lean to screenprint! I'm just going to buy one and learn by trial/error. I have a question... I always stumble on your site how do I get my site cpdesigns.org to be stumbled upon?
