Printmaking and
Polaroids
For the past couple of weekends I have been frantically getting together material for my upcoming exhibition and this has involved two sessions at the East London Printmakers. Unfortunately last weekend wasn't so successful as my images weren't quite black enough for exposing a screen with (silkscreen printmaking). So it was really frustrating, but I literally didn't even get one colour printed. This weekend however, more pressure to get it right! I went away and got my images improved and came back fighting! Last weekend I had had my trusty helper and loving boyfriend with me, this weekend, it was just me.
I am so relieved that I managed this small feat. If I hadn't, it wouldn't of been the end of the world but I would of been a bit disappointed.
HURRAH!
After I had finished up at the printers I headed on over to Brick Lane to meet up with my cousin Tom Wright as he'd just held a Polaroid workshop there that morning (Impossible Project Workshop)...I was a bit late for the workshop, but I did manage to get a few photos taken on my little but chunky Fuji Mini Polaroid and even a few on a 'proper' polaroid camera of Tom's. I let Tom take my polaroids back to Manchester with him so i'll have to share those with you another time!
