Printmaking



This exhibit in the Emmanuel Art Gallery was especially interesting to me. Since maybe 7th grade I've always wanted to make graphic t-shirts of my own and these are screen prints to do exactly that. I never really got the materials or time to do it but seeing this in person made me want to try again. I've made little stamps before and stamped on paper but I want to try it on shirts or jeans. I think I will in the future, and I'm really looking forward to learning more about it.

    I hope you actually go and try to make the t-shirts. It's always exciting when a dream comes back to you.

    I think it's always a good process to come back to things you enjoy especially after seeing inspiration on what could be done.

    I designed a t-shirt for my high school junior year -- but only on the computer using software. I didn't get the chance to actually use the shirt press to print the design on a physical shirt, which I think would be fun and it might have led to a more rewarding outcome. Printing a design on jeans sounds cool, too.

the science behind my lunchtime coffee

 I have found that if I drink my cup of coffee during lunch, or slightly after, my day will work just perfectly. Here's why; When I wake up at 7:30 for this class, and the first thing I reach for is an energy drink, or coffee, I feel great during the class. But then when I get around to my last class at 2, I am crashing, and I no longer want to go. Which often leads me to skip the class or go to sleep for a nap that ends up being way too long because my 2:00 classes aren't super important lol. But I have found that when I drink caffeine at around 1, it wakes me up for my 2:00 class and then I go and pay attention and after it gets out, I can go sit somewhere and have extra energy to do a bunch of homework for a while. So I have adapted my lunchtime coffee to my schedule most days and it works perfectly. And on days that I don't have caffeine with lunch, and I decide to have it later, I have a really great workout, and feel very energized, but after, I don't go to sleep ...
