Printsy Thursday #3.


Ahhh.. . So happy to be posting the 3rd in the series - Printsy Thursday. This week I would like to introduce Alishagould. One of the newest members of the Printsy Team, Alisha is a screen printer. I love screen printing because it is so smooth. Unlike lino-prints or woodblock - (which I love too for other reasons) - the silkscreen allows the artist to apply a thin layer of ink onto the paper without much texture. You can usually achieve fine, razor sharp lines. In this way, Alisha can convey the gossemer quality of this ship's sail (shown above - Titled "Set Sail").


I really like her imagery and use of color. Perfect for anyone, really (I wouldn't mind one - especially the "Boardwalk Arcade")!

Think of Dad for Father's Day too.
