While watching the very exciting US election coverage last night, I finished printing a new, small-scale silkscreen print.
I've been developing some ideas for prints for the last little while, and I finally settled on this. I'm so happy with the way they turned out! I wanted to experiment a little bit with my Print GOCCO using multiple colours per screen; (not only because I thought the effect would be nice, but also because of a shortage in GOCCO supplies these days).
Firstly, I applied a screen with white snow and a faint outline of the reindeer; it's difficult to see from this scanned image. The next two screens were printed with 7 and 3 colours respectively. It turned out just as I'd hoped!
They're 5" x 7" and printed on a lovely ivory hot press stock.

This is beautiful, M!

ReplyDeleteThanks Tony, so are you!
DeleteIt's lovely! I love what you did with the different screens. You reminded me I have a Gocco at home, but I haven't used in a very long time...
ReplyDeleteThanks Julia. You should put it to use! It's so much fun, and rewarding to see things come together so quickly.
DeleteI love the different layers Melinda! I always admire when silkscreen is made to look like paintings, I think it's amazing!
ReplyDeleteThank you Celine! You're so sweet! ;)
DeleteThis is so great. How can I get together with you to make this into a Christmas party invitation?
