CMYK SCREEN PRINT

I recently began screen printing, and it has become a fun hobby for me. My favorite piece so far has been my most recent. It is a CMYK print using a family favorite photo of my two older brothers giving me a kiss on the cheek.
 
Watching the CMYK colors build up step by step to create the final image was both exciting and satisfying as the piece resulted in a unified and almost photo realistic piece.

THE PROCESS

The original photo was seperated into four individual images, each representing one of the CMYK colors: Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. Layering them together produced the full-color final print.
