froggy t-shirt
I took a commercial printing class and had a great time as I got to use my drawing skills for this project. I was limited to 2 colors and black or white. I made this frog jester character as a fun shirt my family and friends could wear.
Process
I first did the drawing in pencil and later traced it over in Adobe Illustrator. Later I added this design into inDesign and translated it to a transparent film for screen printing. After mixing the colors to my liking: I used a manual 3 color screen printing press to print the frog 20 times on varying articles of clothing.
Results
Hand screen printing was a really interesting process to learn. I had varying results for placement but given the fact that I had 20 pieces to print, I got a good number of prints with placements I wanted. I now know what the process is like on a smaller scale and had a lot of fun.
