Transition - close up of garments

Hung piece of fabric, one of two before being cut.
I was really pleased with this screen print as my final outcome, 
sometimes it's a total surprise once it comes out of the steamer.
I did a few smaller scale practices, but left a few things up to being a happy accident and it worked in my favour. 



I applied dyes I'd already mixed and used by hand for a painterly effect, 
only roughly knowing which ones were dischargeable, creating the stripes.
Steaming the fabric brought out brighter blues and greeny-yellows.


I'd like to thank Eve and Bridie for the three man job of moving the huge screens and squeegees
