About Me

I'm am immersing my self in an arts-based research project for my MA in Arts Education at Boston University. The purpose of this art-based project is to pick an art form that I have no or little knowledge about & learn by doing. I am a middle school art teacher in Berkshire County, MA. You can visit my art room blog here: http://mvrmsart.blogspot.com/ I have my absolute dream job! What is better than creating art with talented, funny and creative students all day long! After finishing my thesis and my MA degree, my goal is to implement screen-printing into an art elective class, "Fine Crafts" this upcoming Spring. Follow me on my journey through the discoveries & some-times set backs of an artist-teacher!

3rd color down!

Well, again I still had some registration problems. I think when I do this with my students, we will be doing 2 colors max. 4 colors leads to too many variables. Removing the screen filler is a process to say the least. I have to let it soak for-ev-er, and then scrub and scrub. Meanwhile, my screen is not tight anymore. I handled the screens at The Dolphin Studios and they are as tight as a drum. Mine are not, and besides from taking a tool and pushing down the cotton cord that is between the screen and the frame, I really don't know what else to do.
