New Shirts

This spread of tees are from the Beat Da Heat event last weekend at Genesis Bible Fellowship Church. It was event that featured local gospel musical artists, food, games and a caricature artist. Despite the rain, it was a great event. I featured some new t-shirt designs including the "Fearfully Wonderfully Made" tee and an exclusive "Beat Da Heat" tee.

People Get Ready

I will be selling t-shirts at my nephew's elementary school fleas market tomorrow. This will be the first time I set up shop to sell my own design of shirts. I am both excited and anxious. The process of printing the shirts has been an experience of discovery for me as I have employed some new techniques. I believe they will be well received by the public. *crosses fingers*

Here is a glimpse into the process...

First we set the mood with some music...

 Some old screens need to be cleaned...

 A new batch of photo emulsion needs to be mixed... It's very simple. Just fill the small bottle to 3/4 with water and add to the big jar and MIX!

 Apply to the screen. Allow it to dry... Burn a new screen from an image printed on a transparency sheet.

 This is the test run...

 Not perfect but getting there...
