one of the fun parts of my job is printing a new image - the process is first drawing out the image, my favourite pens to draw with is a felt tip pen, I like how felt pens don't give you a clean line and bleeds a little, when you visit me at a craft show and if I'm not helping a customer I will either be drawing or embroidering, I like those quiet moments at the booth, my days are pretty hectic so it's nice to have time to just sit still and work. the next step is to take the drawing and scan it and clean it up on photoshop - and once I feel like it's good to go I print it and get it ready to be shot on the screen and after that I print it, you never know what your going to get when you screen-print the image, I usually have an idea in my head and it's always an exciting moment to lift up the screen to see the results. I think that excitement is part of my drive to keep making.
in the next few days I will show you more of the crosses print.
love the image and the process
