Store Update/Edit: I goofed and forgot to edit the stock level variants so it appeared they were sold out. :( But don't be sad! I definitely have more so they're back in stock and available! Sorry about that!
After Craft Lake City I decided to get serious about my work and portfolio.
By the time I graduate I want to have a growing career in freelance illustration/printmaking.
So by the end of summer next year I wanted to have 30 new prints added to my portfolio.
To achieve this I decided to give myself a challenge to print a new screen print every two weeks.
Here's number 1 out of 30:
Tea Quail!
While printing this cutie bird there were so many times I wanted to just throw in the towel and take the easy route:
going back down to Salt Lake another day this week just to print.
Never mind wasting the gas we're taking the easy and lazy route!
But I chose to just DWI.
Deal With It.
Didn't bring a coloured version of the image: Mixed colours by memory and it turned out perfect.
Barely enough screen wash to clean the squeegee let alone the screen itself: Reclaimed the entire screen instead.
Really really tight traps: Spent about 20 minutes on registration and got it to turn out right.
Giant wasp trying to attack me inside the garage while burning a screen: Defeated the evil foe.
Honestly though, I'm a pretty lazy cat. I'd prefer to just lay around and watch Pretty Little Liars and not do any work. I also like to just give up when I get bored or things aren't so easy and call it quits for the day.
But I'm really proud that despite all of the obstacles yesterday I climbed right over them, just DWI and got that quail printed.
It's been added to the store so grab one of your own limited edition birds today.
