I guess the railroad bridge where the #MidtownGreeway ends instead of crossing the #MississippiRiver is where the #OregonTrail crosses the #WinchellTrail in #Minneapolis along West River Parkway.
You died of fundamental attribution error. It happens to the best of us. No shame in that.
I have never really gotten the hang of spray paint, and since I have the opportunity to work on large outdoor #canvases, it seemed like the perfect time to experiment with making #stencils based on artwork from the #Watchmen movie. For this attempt, I used card stock and sent it through a vinyl cutter with the traced design from the film’s #artwork. In order to keep the edges down, I used tiny glue dots that are popular among scrapbookers.

Upturned Boats has now been photographed properly and is available in my shop!
It is a six colour screenprint made entirely from hand made stencils using paper cuts, brush strokes, pencil and ink pen marks.
By its nature, nothing lines up perfectly! Because I cut everything out by hand there are small gaps and overlaps but this adds to the enjoyment of the print I think.
It is a limited edition of 50 and is numbered and signed by me.
The size of the paper is 35cm x 47cm approximately. The artwork size is 21cm x 30cm approximately.
It's printed in six colours on Fabriano 5 210gsm printing paper.
I hope you enjoy it!
Editioning is done! Upturned Boats is finished. I think I got about 27 good ones.
Warmer yellow, lighter blue, lighter dark grey. I think it all works well.
Nothing lines up! It was great fun to make and I will take all this learning going foward. This is not the end of me making stencils but just the beginning.
I made the screens this evening.
From hand made stencils came perfect screens! I am so happy.
I can now make a print. I think it'll be the messiest print I've ever made.
Can you tell what it is yet?
I am looking forward to making this print!
I think this plan for my screen print is now complete. I just need to turn this into hand made stencils!
I could make it more and more detailed but I think it would become too hard to make for my first attempt.
Beginning in the mid-18th century, several French companies produced brass (and then zinc and aluminum) stencils for signage, packaging, and other labeling purposes.
Here, @stewf shares a couple sets from our collection, including a brass set dating back to ca. 1785, and another made famous by Braque and Le Corbusier.
(Thanks to Eric Kindel for the date confirmation. See his talk about the origin of these stencils: https://youtu.be/1r3X_g-oBQs)
So this week I made a couple loaves of my usual quickie sourdough recipe -- for some reason, the one on the left didn't rise nearly as well as i was expecting -- but the BIG news is that i got to use my new flouring stencils. i love them! and i have 16 patterns to choose from! #BreadPost #Sourdough #Baking #Stencils
