As i mentioned in my brief i wanted to tackle screen printing with this project seeing as i had just learnt how to do it and thoroughly enjoyed it. I chose the image i wanted to use, and set about setting it up for the print. The reason i chose the image below was because it was large, there wasn't too much detail, but enough to test it and i could move it around in order to get a variety of different prints.
With my screen printing i was going to test the colours and see what was the best paper to print on. I was going to use smooth and watercolour, just to see which transfers better. All the designs i would be printing would just be mock ups to see what the ink would print like, see how was it was to make the screen and what the colours would look like.

The Final Screen Mock Up Prints.
These images just show a selection of prints i did. Some have a variety some don't. The main reason i am looking at these is to see if you can see the difference between the papers, which unfortunately is lost on the computer. however i did do some close up shots in order to see the different textures.

-Watercolour. I really like the design printed on this paper. The ink seems to blotch though which doesn't quite give the crisp image. However i really like the texture and the fact the paper is quite weighty so you actually feel like you're holding something. I think the paper i used was too dark though which didn't help in making the image any clearer.
