It was back in the day of ruby lith and exacto knives and rapidographs. You'd use a wheel to determine what percentage some art should be photographed at to produce a size for burning the screen. For the life of me I can't remember what that wheel is called! Such days. <3 Austanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568578637922817033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8744889144101573638.post-61333981424828914662016-07-25T12:25:38.721-04:002016-07-25T12:25:38.721-04:00Very cool and clever shirt, lady.

Anywhere there's any amount of pleasure and joy in the world, that's always a good thing, because that means there's that much less room in it for the bad stuff.

They did incredible work on fabric --from shirts to banners for Cesar Chavez. Your textile paint brought some good memories back.
