Momo t-shirt

Here's a project from last summer during my screen printing class.

It's Momo from Avatar: The Last Airbender. This is taken from one of their short episodes.


The project was to do a multicolored print.


As you can see in the close up I wasn't very good at it. After several tries I realized that the paint wasn't drying enough before I applied the next layers. I was already having trouble lining up my layers and now it wouldn't dry correctly. In the end, I made some t-shirts with only the black outline.


I'm not sure what to do with the colored ones, since I think they're too ugly to wear.

Screen Printing 101

One of my projects from my summer screen printing class.

My projects were simplistic but I was aiming for understanding rather than trying to print my own art work like the other students. It also helps that I don't have my own artwork and have no drawing talent, which I need to work on. I only say that it helped, because some students got so caught up in their art they didn't have time to finish their projects. So their art became a hindrance.

I've only taken pictures of one project so far. I'll have to dig out the other ones.

This is one of my later projects. Art was done by a friend who requested this shirt.


Shirt: Koalas are 8's because they're telepathic and can control the weather

What's the meaning behind the shirt. I don't have first hand knowledge, but it's supposedly based off of a movie called The Nines with Ryan Reynolds, who my friend is a huge fan of, hence why this shirt was made. If you want to know about the meaning click on the link, I don't know if I can properly explain it since I've never seen the movie.
