I have finished another week of mailart postcards for 31 Postcards in 31 Days. I also finally finished addressing and writing the first week’s postcards and dropped them at the post office this weekend.
These postcards are the result of my silk screening attempt, or should I say 3 attempts. Since then I have purchased a new bottle of drawing fluid and Tada, everything worked out perfectly. I tested out a little sample sketch and I only had to do one coat of the drawing fluid and the lines stayed crisp and didn’t dilute during the screen filler application. These postcards are still based on that former screen I did.
Below are a few details
I have had a few ideas here and there for next weeks postcards, but nothing really set in stone yet. We will see what I come up with.
I ♥ these so much, and it was really fun to follow along with the trial and error process too (via instagram etc). Love how you take on this kind of project and share your pretty creations.
I really like the lilies. On a side note, I thought of your grass paintings this week when I saw the pics of baleen in a shipyard at the National Whaling Museum.
