Liz:
I can ask you the same question. Let's just call it even, mmkay?

screamingfool:
am i practicing thread necromancy?

i dont have pictures of any finished shirts, i give em away or get them dirty before i remember to take photos :/ but these are some of my silkscreen designs;




this is the digital version before i put it on a screen

(i retired this one a few years ago when my girlfriend got it tattooed on her forearm)

i print with acrylic paint instead of silkscreening ink cause it holds up forever in the laundry and keeps it's color longer. i'm intimidated by photo emulsion (stupid i know) so i cut my designs out by hand from ruby-lith. If anyone is looking for a distinctive medium that's cheap and permanent, it's pretty good and damn fast.

oh yeah, FireAarro that sun/moon shirt is hot, i want one

December was a good month. This isn't necessarily necromancy because the Arts and Crafts forums don't get many posts anyway.

I don't like the first one much, but the other three are really cool.

Thanks, it's actually the design off the cover of King Crimson's Larks' Tongues In Aspic... I'm not big in the way of originality :P. I think it turned out pretty well for a tricky design to stencil though.

Can you explain this? I don't know anything about silkscreening.
