I Made This

Yesterday me and some fellow staff members went down to The Vera Project for a little screen printing class. You would think I would already know how to do this, but in fact my only previous experience with making my own silkscreen was in grade school.

That said, being a designer (and one who’s built stuff for screen printing before), I caught on quick. It was super-easy, and of course super-fun. I’ve caught the bug and I’ll now be going back often, as I’ve got tons and tons of ideas.

Posters, t-shirts, cd covers… the shirt I made yesterday is just the beginning. Special thanks to David Gallo for being such a friendly and knowledgeable guide.

About the Shirt: I went curling a couple weeks ago at Seattle’s Granite Curling Club and had an absolute blast. It was at least as much fun as screening my own t-shirt. This was a phrase my friend Kiah came up with, and the moment she said it, I knew a slogan that good deserved to be emblazoned across my chest.
