Mechanical Bear Illustration/Screenprint.
I created a rough pencil sketch using rulers and a lightbox for the gears.
I drew over my pencil sketch using Adobe Draw and Illustrator.
Printed a run of shirts with plastisol in my screen printing shop. However the design was still lacking so I kept adding different elements.
Added more trees in the background and considered a silhouette of grass. Ultimately I decided against the grass.
The finished design I added some halftones as a gradient in the background as I knew I was going to be screenprinting these on paper.
I did a run of 100 screenprints in my shop on French Press paper. I was really pleased with the results as it was the first time printing work on paper.
