Skeleton Tutorial Feedback!

Today I'm posting documentation of a shirt made with the Skeleton Skirt tutorial! My friend and fellow printmaker, Casey, used the tutorial to make a variation of her own. Here it is:

Casey hand-printed the design on the front at the Inkahoots! event earlier this May.

I love the back on this one! I've used this method a few times, but never made the slits so small. Casey tells me that her roommate has made a Skeleton Shirt as well, so expect to see pictures of Annie's shirt soon!

Success at INKAHOOTS!

Anyone who was able to attend Inkahoots! this past weekend can attest that it was a truly remarkable event. The collaboration between OU Printmaking, Clinton Reno, visiting graphic novelists, and the public made for two days of frantic, but fantastic, printmaking. Thanks to everyone who came out to support the event. If you have any feedback about Inkahoots!, comment on this post. Documentation of Inkahoots! t-shirts are also welcome!

Here are some pictures from the weekend.

INKAHOOTS!

Inkahoots! is a collaborative four-day artmaking project in Athens, Ohio between Ohio University School of Art Students, visiting artist Clinton Reno, Athens High School, and other visiting students. Recently, graphic novelists Joshua Dysart, Ron Wimberly, Dan Goldman and Pornsak Pichetshote have also been added to our line-up of guests.

On the Friday and Saturday of Mom's Weekend, unique handmade apparel will be printed and sold at the Howard Hall site, at the top of Jefferson Hill.
