March of Life
11.5x15", Silkscreen, 2022
The first silkscreen print I ever made! I registration is quite off, (probably cause it's a hand-drawn stencil) but I kinda like how rough it is :)
#I switched to digital stencils after this and never went back lol#I want to print a similar design onto a tote bag one day#silkscreen#print#printmaking#my art#art#bugs :)#bug art#traditional art

This book presents a comprehensive view of the work of American painter Philip Taaffe (b.1955), who has expanded the parameters of painting through his use of silkscreen, linocuts, collage, stencils, gouache, chine-collé, marbling, acrylic, enamel, watercolour and gold leaf. Possessing many technical skills, Taaffe has moved decisively between unique pictorial inventions and appropriations, as well as overlaying divergent modes of representation, through cultural patterns found in ornament, and biomorphic abstraction.
John Yau's insightful text is the first to look at every part of Taaffe's artistic development, from the works he made at Cooper Union while a student of Hans Haacke, to the present. It pays special attention to Taaffe's acquisition of different techniques, as well as investigating his various sources of inspiration, which include the work of experimental filmmakers Stan Brakhage, Bruce Conner and Harry Smith, the Natural History illustrations of Ernst Haeckel, and the ancient art of paper marbling.

Trying another style of mugs! I got a new stamp set that is a lot cleaner than the old one and I like the big letter/small letter contrast. I also got dozens of crow silkscreen stencils and am pretty pleased with the details.

heey i have a band and want to make tshirts to sell at our next show, do you have any easy/cheap diy ideas that look nice? silkscreening is too expensive, and i'm not shure if a stencil + fabric paint would stand the test of time...
Okay this craft is thin foam board paper, cardboard, and hot glue, super glue if u can whateever to get that down.
First draw the design you want on the tshirt. Make it simple enough you can cut it out with scissors. Here im drawing out the words again and again playing with making each letter a solid shape with no holes, playing with letter sizes and fonts, trying to draw it smaller and bigger to see how it feels.
Then the finalised logo and size is done in tracing paper so it can be flipped :3 u can also use white paper, flip it, then shine your phone light under it, and draw the logo on the otherside. i just find havi a reference to work off of and getting familiar with the shapes your working with helps.


You cut the logo out of the foam board, then place it on the cardboard flipped to make the mirror image of your logo. Glue down all the foam pieces. I fucked up the D in my logo because i glued it on the wrong side. So i just cut it out again in some green foam.

Make sure to cut off the excess cardboard on the edges. Then tada you have a stamp!
To begin printing with your stamp use a roller to apply fabric paint to it. I personally use speedball fabric ink it is better for rolling onto stamps. The ink stays wet for a long time, applys well to fabric, washs away easy, and it stays better.
I use a rubber speedball roller as well as it applys it evenly. you can definitely diy a roller from a lint roller wrapped in smth. I use an overpriced $40 handle to press down the stamp to fabric. Before i used a heavy mug to press them down.
As you can see by how bad and uneven the color is in the below photo of my first print with the stamp, what really matters is taking your time to apply pressure and your body weight over all of the stamp. And making sure to take your time. It makes the difference in the tshirt print as you can see that i figured out to apply evenly.
If a patch doesnt come out even, you can come back in with a paint brush to fill in the gaps so it looks cleaner, as i did with that patch later.


Good luck with making your tshirts!! I cant wait to start making tshirts myself! So far all ive done is my own clothing but just you wait :3
Also i use wet wipes to try wipe it off. Its not linocut so you cant wash it. So making sure theres no paint on the cardboard before you print is important.

hey can we have this please. i would love solder paste monday


from the comments: it’s a DFN8 package, and the solder paste was applied south-to-north, indicated by smudging at the north end of pads where it seeped under the stencil, which was ever so slightly propped up by the solder mask (i think it was the mask and not the silkscreen). it’s a type 4 SAC305 formulation, and the environment was a little too warm, because flux is leaking out away from the solder mass, i think. we can see that alignment is good overall thanks to the passives.

"My art piece is a reminder that while the American public was protesting in the streets, in record numbers, against racism and police brutality, Donald Trump was encouraging police brutality against the protesters, reinforcing the very same problems within law enforcement and the criminal justice systems the protesters were demanding to be reformed."

I was going to post a progress pic of a pair of overalls I'm making from this cosplay's mockup.... and then realized that I hadn't posted the ACTUAL cosplay.
We were stuck in moving limbo this year, but I still wanted a new cosplay for Dragoncon, so I whipped together this Starfleet Rosie the Riveter! The blouse and self-sealing stem bolt were purchased, but the overalls, buttons, and bandanna were made (with the graphics and design help of my partner, @so-i-did-this-thing).

There aren't any licensed Trek fabrics I liked, so I made my own with temporary adhesive vinyl cut on @londonmall1987 's cricut which was used as a stencil. BTW, Jacquard Super Opaque Fabric Paint is LEGIT AS HELL. The cotton I used for the bandanna ended up being kinda thick, so I want to eventually remake it (hopefully with a proper silkscreen setup). The overalls were made from Folkwear's Rosie the Riveter pattern, which I HIGHLY recommend. Just do a mockup first to make sure the bodice is fitted nicely.

(ARTS346) Week 3 Progress
Feedback from Online Class, Thursday, January 23, 2025
Response from Professor Nace on Screen Design proposal: "My class used Artivive for the AR component of the project. I think you headed in a clearer direction today. There are probably thousands of stories to tell. I would suggest thinking about something that you want to talk about and maybe follow. Example, have you ever gone on the rice field tour at Brookgreen garden? It's amazing if you haven’t. it clearly tells the story of slavery in that area. Perhaps you follow a “slave or slave family” from that time to a more present impact that that culture had on the area. Real or factious characters. Or a sailor that was in the fishing industry. Or what it was like for young women then and now? I think you will have to make a story that people can see themselves in."
Basecamp Message Posted 1/27/2024: Many of you posted moodboards last week when I asked for storyboards. Storyboard is a sequence of events. A timeline, sometimes with images or images and words. Please be sure to be prepared with a storyboard tomorrow. Printed, ready to discuss.
Assigned Reading: The Weaving of Design & Community
Continuing the themes from the previous week's reading, this chapter discusses the idea of combining design and community to express your creative voice and make it heard through your work. One quote that resonates with me is: "It is about humanity, generosity, and characteristics innate to human beings that encourage us to try to make this a better world." (Heller, Steven; Vienne, Véronique. Citizen Designer: Perspectives on Design Responsibility (Function). Kindle Edition.) This statement perfectly encapsulates the importance of using design to strengthen and uplift your community, contributing positively to the world around you.
I can relate this idea to an initial concept I had for my semester-long project for the Process and Systems course: to help revitalize Flemington, New Jersey, by fostering collaboration with local businesses and the art scene. This town holds a special place in my heart, as it was only a 26-minute drive from my hometown, and I spent many formative years there. I have fond memories of attending church at St. Magdalen's, shopping at the local outlets (which included the now-demolished Liberty Village), going to various doctor appointments, and dining with relatives at local restaurants.
Unfortunately, Flemington has fallen into disrepair. The main street is nearly devoid of businesses, the historic buildings are in poor condition, and very few people stroll through the area anymore. During my last visit in November, I kept asking myself if there was a way I could help. I wanted to use my graphic design skills to give back to the town that helped shape who I am today. I envisioned helping it recover in a way similar to Frenchtown's revival, injecting new life into the area.
Initially, I scrapped this concept because I wasn't sure it fit the course criteria, and I lacked the ability to travel back and forth to gather visual imagery and conduct research. However, as I have struggled to form a personal connection to my Murrells Inlet project, I am considering revisiting the idea of helping Flemington, as it is very dear to my heart. I still have a deep love and nostalgia for the town and want to see it succeed in any way I can.
I plan to continue working on the Murrells Inlet project, but I need to decide whether to make this change sooner rather than later, especially since the Screen Design portion of this project is due on February 11th!
Developing & Experimenting with Silkscreen Printing
Inspiration & Video Tutorials

Link to Original Article:
Taken from Webpage: Think of screen printing as similar to the RISO process!
Remember: RISO is transferring an image onto a thin stencil, called a master. This printing process is similar to screen-printing in the sense that ink is pushed through a prepared stencil.
Screenprinting is a process where ink is forced through a mesh screen onto a surface. Making certain areas of the screen impervious to printing ink creates a stencil, which blocks the printing ink from passing through the screen. The ink that passes through forms the printed image.
The main colors used in screen printing are cyan, magenta, yellow, and black (CMYK), which are considered the "four-color process" and allow for a wide range of colors to be reproduced by mixing them together
*For the best results format your design on tabloid or letter sized paper when possible.

Creating Propaganda
When we say propaganda, we mean written materials that clearly represent the group’s consensed agenda. Propaganda distribution can be its own action, as with a wheatpasted flier or a stencil addressing a particular issue. Propaganda is also useful for getting people to a public demonstration or disseminating information. Propaganda may include:
Fliers: Put as much information as you have on them in as interesting and concise and glamorous way as possible.
Zines: Derived from “magazine,” these are a form of handmade self-publishing and are often photocopied, but can be silkscreened, printed, painted, handwritten, etc., and may involve mixed media. This information made its first debut in a zine!
Stickers: Fun to hand out at demos or stick them in places where wheatpasting or stenciling are not viable options.
Patches: People love free art.
Website: You’re on one right now. Great for disseminating information, but never rely on it.
Press release: To get those horrible media monsters to cover your brilliant, courageous action or intervention. A press release should always be succinct and inflammatory. Send out before deadline (call each outlet for specifics) and always include phone number for the designated media liaison.

Unique silkscreen print with palm, 2024 ~ by Tind Silkscreen, Greece_
Hand stencils, made by blowing pigment over a hand held against a wall, are found from over 35,000 years ago in Asia and Europe, and later prehistoric dates in other continents. Being a silkscreen printer encourages humility, gratitude, and a recognition of the collective effort that drives progress and innovation. We are following the steps of the masters, ditch everything we know, explore the limits of the medium with the curiosity of a child_

1, 5 and 10 for the ask game :)
1. what medium do you use most (if applicable, what software)?
I use Clip Studio Paint pretty exclusively nowadays, with a non-screen tablet (I can't draw looking down on a surface my neck hates it lol)
I rarely do traditional art nowadays but I enjoy printmaking :] (Rubber stamp carving and silkscreen stenciling)
5. how would you describe your art style?
kind of all over the place lmao. my comics and more toony work are admittedly in a very western-with-a-touch-of-anime-influence 'commercial' style with the character-focused art and bright, flat colors.
my more illustrative pieces are directly inspired by transparent cubism and art nouveau, though~
10. how do you deal with artblock?
so here's the thing. i'm actually rarely ever fully art blocked in that i find myself completely stuck as to what to draw.
this is especially rare nowadays since my current job has me busy enough that i always have some personal art project in the background i want to do once i have free time.
and if i feel stuck at art at my job. i have a deadline. i literally just power through it and make it happen no matter how stuck i feel. usually i just have to figure the Right background stimulation to be able to focus (is this a task for silence, for music, for a video game LP, for a video essay, an easy-to-digest dubbed anime, or for me to stream it to friends for co-working?)
but ok. right now i'm in a kind of partial block where i just find i hate working on full illustrations and rendered work. but i'm having fun just drawing aforementioned comic and toony work of guys just standing around. so the answer is. i just draw something different bc i literally always find something i want to do.
in the rare event i AM fully art blocked i just do my other hobbies until it returns lol (gaming, prose writing, music composition.)
#ask game#im sorry i don't have very actionable advice for art block like.#im literally just built to see drawing as like eating and breathing
