After the ridiculously wordy last post, here are a few quiet pictures from this week: printed some packaging for Falconwright, picked up some wool to attempt a scarf (black, of course), and begun setting up my home studio.
I just finished up my latest (and largest) project yet! Designing and printing 500 cds for Fine Canadian Forces. Thank you to Rob for all the printing help (a new master of squeegee wrangling!) and to Rob, Dennis, and Tim for such expert assembly assistance. I've got myself a bit of a repetitive strain thing going down and I couldn't have done this without the help of my extra supportive, super helpful pals. Best dudes. I'm definitely happy with the way things turned out, and as always, it was quite the learning experience. My bias is huge, but screen printing just slays digital printing every single time!
Printing the first 150 copies of this CD was fun. Printing the last 350 has been . . . taking me a while, ha.
Oh! A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of chatting with Jeff Garcia AKA Mangoepeeler's screen printing class about the pleasures and pain of screen printing at home. It was fun times! If your looking to get into screen printing, his class is a totally relaxed way to learn the process. He also makes good art stuffs to look at with your eyes. Click HERE.
