silkscreen experiments

A few prints from my first silkscreen project, which was really fun cuz it was all experimental. We didn't have to worry about being neat or producing clean prints, which was nice.

Part of the assignment was to try different kinds of stencils. I think I like rubylith the best so far. It prints the cleanest lines. The photocopies worked OK, but I learned they have to be pretty black and white to work well (greyscale doesn't really screen print).
