blurry RAISINS OVER PASSION in front of macramé wall

Silkscreen artwork was made using sticky vinyl to create a one-off stencil. The positive is cut out with an exacto knife and placed on the paper side of the screen, it's immediate and lends itself really well to my font, huzzzzzzzzzah! I do wish I hadn't lost the middle of the O and the A, or had thought to cut another, arf.

Printing at Kallie Garcia's Little Armadillo print shop with Flash the dog.

Heat setting with John's handsome iron.

A quick and dirty Hazel twinning (disregard the photoshop hack job on the right).

CHEER SQUAD, featuring Elli & Andrew

design feature v. design flaw

a sharp punch to the net's baby ball bump becomes a much sought after gesture to macrame-ball

TEAM- the few names I remember, from left to right, Braden, Andreas, fellow from Montréal, fellow from Halifax, Hazel, fellow from Halifax, fellow from Montréal, Andy

After the group pic some of the fellows pull off their shirts, allowing for a cool breeze on their chest, but seriously ruining our team identification strategy, that being black shirts against everything else. Arf.

I was warned of the Sackville panty snatcher and told NOT to leave my laundry alone, so, I stayed with my laundry as it was laundering at the local laundromat and noticed the small and faded laundry machine rules wall signs, and thought how easy it would be to make bigger, bolder signs, I like painting text, I do, so I did, and put them back up, with loops of masking tape, I took some pictures as it is nice to remember these gestures that are something and hardly anything all at once.

Whaaaat!  #53's wristband blends with the inner backboard rectangle, making it look like his hand detached to reach for the ball!

THANK YOU Kevin for drawing my attention to this gem of a blog.
Above are some of my favourite images from the basketball section, Lew Alcindor at graduation, a baby Pau Gasol and a mighty strange trio of dudes, Arnold, Hugh & Wilt.
Basketball nostalgia at its finest, zero guilt.
