Printing Session

Hej! I printed the whole day yesterday at the Konstnärnas Kollektiv here in Göteborg. I showed you some pictures already, it's such a great place! They are looking for more members, you can apply with your portfolio here. So if you are a designer or artist and live in Göteborg: check this place out! I highly recommend it! Here you can see  sneak peek of the new cushion collection I am working on:

DIY NEWS

 Hej!

My bubble print diy was featured in the German magazine Eigenwerk! This issue is all about paper and it is filled with a lot of diy projects.

 

Another project of mine was featured here. It' s my 5-min cushion cover print-project.

    I printed a cushion cover for my sister this weekend. Very simpel, just dots in 2 different sizes and colours:

To give it a personal touch I made the most simpel label and sewed it in. It's just a piece of white cotten , folded and printed with an E (for Elena). I used a wooden rubber stamp for it:

This is another cushion cover I printed and sewed last weekend:

That's it for now! Sun is shining, it' s a wonderful day! I saw the first cranes coming back from the south this morning! It made me so happy :)

Have a nice day!

 Testing the Sad Cat print.

The shoe print! Today I transferred a drawing of my shoe onto a screen and printed half of the kids shirt...The back side will follow. I think it looks very funny! What do you think? By the wy, the shirt is made of organic cotten and soon you can buy it at Friends of Form in Göteborg!

Hello Thermal-copier!

I have a thermal-copier now! It is an easy way to make screens for screen print. Well, I still have to figure out which copies work best. I also have a china-marker and chinese ink, with them I can paint and draw on white paper, take the right size of the mesh and insert the "sandwich" in the copier. Now the screen is nearly ready, it just needs to be taped on a frame. This also works with black and white copies, but they have to be lasercopies and it depends on the brand of the printer how good it works. So here I need to experiment a lot.

-Mr ersson and me had fun at our first printing session. It did not really work out with the  skull though...
Soon more!
