Haring Screen T-Shirt
This is a t-shirt I made for the wife. It is a Keith Haring design of a Man and Woman Holding Up a Child in Celebration.
Occasion: Wife's birthday.
Where I got the Idea: From this tutorial here. Basically, the steps are:
- Get a design.
- On a embroidery hoop, copy design onto the hoop with pencil.
- Paint the negative (white) space with glue.
- Lay it over the shirt, paint over the lines (black) space with Black fabric paint.
- After it dries, iron to seal it.
Difficulty: Easy/Medium.
Time: Can be done in a weekend or less, if you're organized and can gather all the materials beforehand.
Cost: $10-$15. The shirt was free.
Post-Mortem: It definitely didn't come out as clear as I wanted. Some of the lines are jagged. Maybe I used the wrong kind of mesh. Anyway, for my first effort, not too bad.
My next attempt will be a Stencil Screen Method. Stay tuned.
