Layering screen prints with thermofax screens

When I create textured papers for printing or collage, I think about:

• Using a variety of lines, thin, thick, curved, even, uneven, and so on
• Finding some harmony in the chaos by the time I am done and
• Combining colors in a way the leads the viewer to a focus

I like to give myself time to come to a place where I am happy with the layers.

I also work on 10 or more papers at once so that I have lots of opportunities to succeed.

I have put together a kit of 8 thermofax screens that are great for creating layered, textured papers.

The kit includes:

• butterfly
• dragonfly
• scribbly handwritting
• “love”
• “create”
• 2 spyrograph drawings and
• circular pattern

The imagery is simple enough to working to many different projects. You could use many of the screens together, as I did in today’s project or you could use them separately to make, cards, t-shirts, napkins, aprons, tablecloths and much more.
