Screen Printing: Colour Separation

Colour separation for photographic screen printing - went pretty well! I've included photos of all the layers and various combinations

CYAN
YELLOW
MAGENTA
BLACK
MAGENTA + YELLOW
CYAN + YELLOW
CYAN + MAGENTA

FINAL FULL COLOUR PRINT


As described in a previous post, I played around with colour halftones as well. These are probably my favourite prints due to the greater opportunity for experimentation. The first image is just the 3 colour print and the second is with the black on top. I know it doesn't come across well in the scans but if you look closely at the darkest areas of the halftone prints they're actually amazingly enchanting. Areas that are simply a dark shadow on a photograph are made up of so many colours!
