three black and white test prints to see how the screens turned out. I'll make a run with these images in sequence as well as a run with them all layered on top of each other.
I am enjoying the technique of using screens as mark making tools. Of course that is what they are, but the mindset is subtly different with this approach. I have not set out to make a single image, creating a color separation with a purposefully rigid order. I want each screened layer to be like a splash of paint or a drawn line; only part of the total image; and reveal the process that I go through to make an abstract painting using recognizable shapes.
there are more of the test images from the other screens here

Well I like your loud mouth. I do have some questions about one of your threads. I was a bit shy to ask wtf does this mean? I am more of a "hands on" visual student. Yes I can read, but sometimes I donl't understand what it means until I see it or do it myself.
