in progress -
All of my work has multiple layers of printing. Especially my large pieces. I work and work on those to get the perfect texture - which means the perfect mistake, that looks beautiful - that i cant duplicate (unfortunatly) There are so many factors when printing this way. The color and texture of the ink, the weather - hot? dry? humid? cold?, and then which screen i use - and which pencil. (not to sharp - worn, and just pefect) Here is a piece that I started a few days ago and spent literally 2 hours screening the background blue. (over and over)
i got great texture - i love it.
I took it outside to sand it and just as i was about to sand it - a drop of water from the garage door landed right in the blue space to the left of the house. i was so upset. its now back on my desk waiting to be reprinted.

Oh that is sooo frustrating! Printing is both rewarding and frustrating, but your work is really beautiful, and does have great character!
crap how one drop of water can ruin your whole day like that.
