Description
This the biggest screen print I've ever attempted. Each wing is about 16.5 inches tall and something like 9 inches wide. Each wing had a screen for the halftones (pearl white) and one for the line work (gold).

Because I had the acetates printed at a printing shop the line work and the halftones weren't printed right, something I didn't realize until too late. The result was that the it was impossible to line up the line work with the halftones perfectly. Oh well, so I won't do that again. But it is handy to have something printed on a 11x17 acetate (kindof expensive though, ack). So there was a lot of hand painting afterward.

I had trouble crossing the seam at the sleeve but I knew that was going to happen and that there's little to be done for it. Still, it turned out better than I thought it would.

So as an experiment in largeness and crossing seams I consider the result satisfactory.

Here's a link to a larger hires version (it's big though, so be warned). LINK
