Mastering screen printingScreen Print of our team flag

Cloth screen print for team BLAH flag - isnt she beautiful!

So during our collaboration, we each individually took our own work shops, me, I did screen printing, and aside from the unbelievable heat in the screen room, I had a blast!! its definitely something I tried my hand at in my first year and was eager to re-visit, so, naturally I jumped at the chance to do so.
during these few days, I learnt a whole lot! there are way more types of screen printing than I knew existed! on paper, on cloth, metal, steaming, heck they even had me ironing! first for everything I guess!!
The first thing I created was the team BLAH flag (above) isnt she a beauty! so simple, so proud! its still up in my studio space, and will be for the forseeable future! 

Look at me go!

As fun as it was, it was time to put it behind and get on with the collab... why ever would I need to screen print whilst making money... WAIT A MINUTE! I learnt how to screen print intricate foil patterns onto paper! that would look fantastic on money!!! and wow did it! it gave our credit notes the absolute perfect finish they needed!

Screen printing, this is not the last you have heard of me...
