FOXY BROWN (1974)

Dawes: What do you really want?
Foxy Brown: Justice.
Dawes: Sister, I think what you're looking for is revenge.
Foxy Brown: You just handle the justice, and I'll handle the revenge myself.

PHOTO LITHO MONO SCREEN PRINTING COMBO

Screen print on top of litho monoprint. First try but quite successful.

PHOTOCOPY LITHO MONOPRINTING

I'm really busy at the moment but got totally hooked on doing these prints. They are pretty time consuming but the effects are great. I am planning to screen print over a few of them next week, hopefully it'll come out amazing. Watch this space for more!

Here are a few from last few weeks

PHOTOCOPY LITHO MONOPRINT 2

New results! Very pleased. First they came out really bad as there was too much ink and I didn't mix it with enough oil (it shouldn't be sticky).
I almost gave up but according to Barbara you need to make at least four prints, only then you get best results. She was so right! The forth one came out just as I imagined.

PHOTOCOPY LITHO MONOPRINT

Fab workshop. Dramatic effects. Cool background for screen printing. Very exciting as you never know what's gonna come out.

Just to remind myself and all of you out there that know what I'm going on about:

B/W image (high contrast, avoid gray)
make a fresh photocopy
prepare dry sponges, sponges soaked in water, gum arabica, veg oil, oil paint, acetate
put g.arabica on acetate, stick photocopy on it, sponge in arabica, spread all over photocopy. wait a minute or two. do another layer of arabica. wait til it dries. Roll over with ink. Only tiny amount of it. Wipe ink off with water sponge. Roll over again. Wipe it off. Put into roller. 2 thicker plates underneath, newsprint, image, paper, newsprint. Voila, the one off masterpiece!

This is what I'm talking about!
