Screen Print VI: My Poster

Photo by Chris "Nova" Smith 
The final screen print I did ended up deviating from the "portrait" series. I decided to make a poster tha could be used for my growing collection of dresses. I named this collection Salvation Couture. As I was printing the monotypes the image changed and colors mixed and by the end I couldnt choose a favorite so I kept them all. 

The First Monotype

Second Monotype

Third Monotype, changed the colors

Forth Monotype, at this point things go a lil messy

Screen Print V: Nova

This is Nove a.k.a Chris. I remember when he showed up at TU with his "Bolt Hawk" skinny and skinny jeans. Stephann found him at the BSU cookout and the rest is history. On this particular night in this particular picture I just told him "you know I love you right, like you know if these hoes are bothering you or if they bother you in Cali, I know you wont fight a girl but I drop her for you." Or well I said something along the lines of that lol

Screen Print IV: Foster

Oh Frosty. 
This is Foster, and yes that is his real name. This is us at this Toga party me and  my cousins hosted the beginnign of my last year at Towson. I don't remember what he said before we took this picture but it was, as usual, HILARIOUS. 

The text transparencies.
Layer 1 

After adding the second layer, achieved by exposing fabric on my silk screen instead of using a transparence. 

Layer 3 achieved by exposing a different fabric then the one iused in layer 2.

The Finished Print. With the "Foster's" beer can addition.
