Graphic Design, Color Separations, and T-shirts
My roommate Maggie Cee is putting on another amazing Femme Show – this Friday and Saturday! And we printed the T-shirts! Check it out at https://www.facebook.com/events/482154965286160/
Aqua ink on a black shirt needs a layer of white underneath in order to be the bright color you expect it to be. The white screen is slightly thinner than the aqua screen, so we can avoid white peeking out around the edges!
Making a new family crest while on vacation! A bunch of my family members made these, and then we used them as our team logos in our ping-pong tournament! I used pencil, roller pen, and finally colored pencil.
2-color separation – gold and purple. I’m proud of how this one turned out! Started from a full-color image, but the customer wanted to go with just two ink colors!

6 color separation, with halftones. This design is my breakthrough into the world of complex index color separations. There has definitely been a learning curve, but I’m really excited to keep learning!
Here’s an animation of the Everett Football champions design.

Experimenting with representing color separations as gif files. Here is a separation I did for some Trombone Shorty t-shirts. His artist created the artwork.
