Silkscreen Visual Journal

 Here's the silkscreen journal I made at Artfest. Now I need to actually use it! Maybe paint some of the pages and do some collage work and try to take it with me everywhere I go.

 Here is the inside and another print I made with different ink.

I also made a quick print of a little owl. I am loving this simple way to do silkscreens. Much easier than the ones I did in college. I want to try and make some labels for my rug hooked critters using this method. I will let you know how it works. First I need to get the supplies to make some new screens and check out the local art stores for the right ink.

Cute as....I think they would make wonderful tags for your rug hooking too!
Of course, I love that little owl.
