Adventures in Screenprinting - Episode 6: IT'S FINISHED!!!

There it is! It's done. I spent all day Sunday printing. ALL DAY. And it's finally a reality. Finally printed.
I learned a lot. Seriously, I made a lot of rookie mistakes that I won't make again. A lot of my mistakes had to do with registration, going back to the output of the transparencies. Actually - i think it's going to be pretty important for me to find somewhere that will print a large transparency for me so I can get the registration correct. Another rookie mistake, including too much of the wrong kind of detail in my image. I got a lot of detail that needed to be lined up perfectly to come out correctly, and since I'm still learning how to correctly and consistently register my art, it didn't always come out perfect. I think If I would have set the art up differently, I could have achieved what I was going for.

So, I printed 60 and ended up with 40 keepers. So, the edition specs are as follows:

Burgettstown, PA 06.18.09 - 40 Hand printed posters, Signed and numbered, printed on French White Speckletone 80# cover, 3 colors, 12"x24.5"

Here's some photos of the prints drying...
