Thea Broad's Senior Project

●      Self-reflection post (to be copied into your spring reports along with your faculty advisor’s report). Be sure to reflect on your progress towards your initial goals. So my initial goals were to sell an item to someone out of my family, try new techniques, and get better at managing my time. I am currently working on a piece to sell to someone outside of my family, but I have made a few prints for friends that I don't want to "sell" they are just gifts. I have tried both screen printing and just regular painting on clothes and I prefer screen printing because the print is cleaner, but it also is a longer process to cut out the stencil and stuff. For time management I've decided that it works well to have a few different screen printing designs that I'm working on at the same time because when I have them all cut out I can just screen printing which goes faster. ●      Would you recommend this senior project to another student? Why? I would recommend ...

  Tell a story about a happy/challenging/funny/meaningful moment from the week I finished cutting out some designs for friends and I'm thinking about more designs I want to make. It's been nice to know that people want certain designs because there's more to work toward. It has been challenging because I have to find some shirts that will work for certain prints. What have you learned? I've learned that process is important especially with the screen prints that can only be used once. Reflection on progress towards goals from week 1 I have given a shirt to a friend which felt really nice and I am wanting to give more shirts to friends next week. Questions you have I don't have any questions, but I think I will continue making people shirts they want. 1-2 images/photos
