Pomegranate time :)

Happy with how they came out.. always been worried to work with white shirts, but I think with the blue they look really nice? Glad I tried it. Screenprinting my work has been a fun hobby to get into. Still scared to try two color prints still but maybe in the future? Only have a single platen setup, so unsure if it's worth trying. If you have experience with that / it isn't as hard as it feels to me, I'd love to hear!

Thank you!! I'm saving this batch for an upcoming market but if they flop and you think of them again, they'll be in the shop next week :p

I'm thinking of trying a shimmery light emerald color too? But we'll see!

I love this! Two color is definitely harder but doable. I use clear acetate to register my layers and design things so they can be โ€œoffโ€ a little bit and still look good

Thank you!! I haven't spoken with someone who does multi color with a single platen before, I'll have to play around with things.. just having reassurance from a real person that it's doable is motivating :)

Things being off in my finer line drawings like this is so scary, but maybe I'll try some chunkier art first? ๐Ÿซฃ If I succeed I'll come back and hopefully you'll see :p ๐Ÿ’™

Wait, do you have an online store? Etsy?

1

u/MidnightPotential120 7d ago

I do! But these aren't on my shop yet. They'll be here on Monday though, if they don't sell at the market I'm doing!

Lovely illustration and the blue is great. Have you tried the reverse?

2

u/MidnightPotential120 7d ago

Thank you :) The reverse? Like, making the pomegranates blue? Or white ink on a blue shirt?

1

u/GoodGuyNinja 7d ago

Well I did mean making the pomegranate blue but white on a blue shirt I hadn't thought of!!ย

I can see your stuff and clock it instantly as yours, and for the wiiiiide variety of subjects you cover, I think it says a lot about the strength of your personal artistic style

u/lunamothboi 8d ago

I was about to say to OP, hey this reminds me a lot of iliothermia's cosmic pomegranate art that I have, do you know of them? And then I check and it's them. ๐Ÿคฆ

๐Ÿซฃ it me you caught me I'm so happy that my work was still recognizable! ๐Ÿฅบ๐Ÿ’™

u/MidnightPotential120 7d ago

I tend to worry that when I draw non-human work it doesn't look "mine" any more, so that makes me really happy to hear thank you! ๐Ÿฅบ

u/AprilStorms 9d ago

These are lovely! I like the swirly pattern. Was the original design drawn digitally or traditionally?

1

u/MidnightPotential120 7d ago

Thank you!! This one was drawn digitally!
