3D Bird- The Process

Thought I'd upload some photos taken in the process of my latest project. Below are some images taken from my camera phone while in the screen printing onto wood to create wooden characters.
 

 

Screen print on wood- first colour light green, this is the lightest colour so I printed this first as all the other colours will sit on top of it

 
Preparing second colour to be pulled with a squeegee and printed onto on the wood 


 
 Red ink successfully pulled
 
 

Now the print looks like this on the wooden surface- one more colour left to print


Brown colour now printed, left to dry on the drying rack


When prints are dry, I cut them out on a band saw machine
 

Print cut out


 
Looked at different ways of cutting the print out on the band saw
 
I also printed on paper, going to print a run of 10 on decent paper and hopefully get some sold.
 
 
Next I'm going to produce some little wooden screen printed stands that the characters can be glued onto to stand up straight..
