Silkscreening

I have had the awesome opportunity to learn how to silkscreen here at Pratt. I went to an initial workshop where I learned the basics or silkscreen printing and how it works. The instructor, Chance, is a newly graduated graphic design student and is always more than willing to come to the workspace to help us print on his own time. A couple other girls and I have been going to silkscreen several times a week because it is so much fun! I went to the store Uniqlo to buy solid color clothes that I could print on, making perfect gifts for friends and family. The store is like American Apparel but very cheap. I am so glad that I got the chance to learn how to do this and am very excited to keep doing it!

  1. This is Gammers. I can't wait to see all the clothes you are making me with your silkscreening! You should make them a bit smaller because I have lost 4 pounds with Lisa's food plan and I should be skinny by the time you get back. I fell and hurt myself yesterday but I should be okay. What is your favorite class?
