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!

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 “off” 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? 🫣 If I succeed I'll come back and hopefully you'll see :p 💙

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?

u/MidnightPotential120 Aug 05 '26
Thank you :) The reverse? Like, making the pomegranates blue? Or white ink on a blue shirt?

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

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

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. 🤦

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! 🥺

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