Over the past few weeks I have explored several mediums of alternative processing. Initially, when we were taught how to do them silkscreen stuck out most to me. As we had 3 AP assignments I chose this to do first as it takes the most preparation. I found this humourous yet very helpful video, "How to silkscreen" so that I could understand the process a bit more.

The images I decided to have as a silkscreen were inspired by kids, the designs on t-shirts that most stick out to me are the prints on their t-shirts. I decided to make my brother a t-shirt with a line of giraffes (Not my image ) on it (3rd photo & right photo). As I didn't actually use the concept of registrations on the silkscreen, I did my own alternative way. In all, I had a 'separate registration' for the grass, the actual giraffes, and their brown spots. The other t-shirt I made for my brother was of him sitting in a car --I decided to attempt a pop art type for it. So my first registration was the four coloured squares, then the actual print. It was extremely difficult to correctly match the position of the face for each square, though it all worked out! My third print is of elephants (Not my image), this print has the most detail and it came out very well. In all I am happy with my final results.
