Screen printing arliyah

Screen printing/Friday 31st October 2014 .



1.      Finally it was time to start screen printing.We looked at some art we came up with this cool idea.The artist's name was called Sheyne Tuffery. His art was like a over lapping background art and       lot's of textures and different kinds of colours .


2.       Next we made our own art like that. We had to cut out shapes and cars,animals stuff like that.You have to use quite a lot of paper and you can't just cut straight through.You have to fold it then cut it out .




3.         After we got to pick our own piece of coloured paper. We then put our shape that you have cut out on top of the coloured paper. Than put the screen printer board over top of it to get the paint in the gapes. You get someone to hold down the board than you can pick what colour you won't to go on the pitcher I picked a dark blue to make it stand out more.



4.          At last it was time to rub the paint in I only went quite slow because if you went fast it won't come out right.I pulled it of gently and took my art on to the news paper when I was rubbing the paint in it felt really squishy and smooth,plompy. That was my favourite thing out of screen printing .




5.           When you have put your art onto the news paper. You grab a end of a paint brush and than you can start scratching in a pattern and it really stands out sometimes when your doing your scratching the colours that come out sometimes change colour like blue or brown or some other colour .


6.             I felt when I did it and finished. I was happy,relieved that it came out right it was a lot of fun I like doing screen printing it's really fun and cool and it's really cool painting over it and cutting out or sought's of different shapes like triangles and squires and rectangles it is really fun.




7.           Altogether you do four layors. But you have to wait a whole day to let it dry your art so you will have to have a lot of patients.If you mucked up and some of your paint has smudged you could just paint over it or do another layor .




8.           The mess we made. We had to go and wash our hands and tidy up on some of my shapes I did triangles and a light blue colour for my second layor screen printing is a lot of mess and fun and creative and can get messy for  screen printing you have to be really careful nothing goes wrong .




9.            At the end when I finished. All my layors were   completed I injoyed doing screen printing my favourite part was rubbing the paint into the pitcher.
