Last year I mentioned that I was collaborating with Gerri Menz of Artwear, a women's clothing boutique in Arlington, MA, to make some hand printed items. What fun for a pattern junkie like me. Plus, I am a screenprinter from way back (Local 1734, Connecticut Ave. Dupont Circle in DC, circa 1978!)We've been doing some great little jackets using lotus root prints. Here are some new prints-in-the-making using fuzzy melon and jalapeno peppers. I will photocopy these onto transparencies and then use them to create my screenprints.
