screen printing in seattle.

i am still partially recovering from last weekend, which i spent with my cousin in seattle. it was pretty much amazing. we got to go to honk fest in george town, shop at the brand new dick blick art store on capitol hill, and learn how to screen print. ok, so she already knew how, being that she's pretty much a jill of all trades. but i got to learn. screen printing is something i have been interested in for quite a while, as well as block printing. the closest i have gotten to either of those things is carving potatoes and printing with them. fun as that may be, the results aren't nearly as impressive as transferring drawings to screens and plastering the image all over anything and everything in sight (which i have been doing since i got home). i can't wait to take pictures and show everyone what i have been up to!!
