After meeting to discuss the importance of creating
lots of good car-free propaganda, greg lundgren of
vital 5
productions here in seattle showed me the way by setting me up with a
sheet of acetate and instructions in how to cut it. It's been a loooongtime
dream of mine to sell Picture of the Day t-shirts to make
me a millionaire, so a quick trip to Kinko's and I had my pattern, enlarged
from the little man up there, a post-it note doodle from my first office
job. A quick frame, stretched silk, and lots of lacquer thinner and blocking
paint later and I had my first screen, along with a jar of ink and squeegee
to make my first print.
You too can learn the joys of silkscreen creation, and help the car-free
cause while you're at it:
