Colour Mixing

Today was first day at the work-shop were we experimented with colour mixing and screen-printing technique which I was already familiar with before . I consider this technique as one of my favourite which allows me to enhance my print patterns using different methods. I hate colour mixing part though as i can never get the exact colour accurately. All my morning session ended with mixing colours.  In the afternoon we got cracking with screen printing using stencils. I created repetitive circle patterns and i than cut the stencils carefully using stencil knives. I used screen-board and placed my stencils on top of the material and began creating lots of print samples. I used materials like sugar papers to plain poly- cotton for different texture experiment. I also discovered a new method were i used different paints all at once and slowly sliding the squeeze to create beautiful print patterns. Today the  screen printing experience was fun and exciting . I worked with colours i thought would never work together but i liked the idea of not knowing what to expect from it as the result may come out differently than you imagined.
