Trevor has a printmaking powers and I do not.

Today I did my first silk screen print. And oh crap, I forgot to put my screen away. Which means in the next hour I'll be driving down to the print lab in the cold wet rain. My mood has just gone frm delighted to aggravated in 2.6 seconds.

Anyway, my first silk screen print was a block of color, and although the application looked easy, I had difficulty. It came to my attention that it looked easy because Trevor was a professional and probably had ten times more arm strength than me. I pulled 7 out of 8 good prints! Pretty good for a newbie. I want to shoot for the stars with this project, because I really enjoy Andy Warhol's silk-screens prints. Andy Warhol took celebrity images and printed this in bright colors with different layers, and although it can seem kind of frivilous, it reflected alot about the values and popculture of his world at the time. I don't really want to get into that(I feel like I'm walking through honey whenever I think about fame), but I do really like the art of print-making. It's such an old artform, full of tradition, history, and hardwork. I think I appreciate that the most really, the sweat that goes into it.

Okay, off to save my print frame. Don't get kidnapped frame!
