i really hate stupid people.

i was making fibre prints in the darkroom yesterday and i layed my prints to dry on the drying rack and i came back a few hours later to iron out my prints and i found a bunch of first years passing them around and putting their grubby hands all over my prints. after almost hyperventilating, i went crazy-loco on them. it wasn't pretty.

next time we should put little sticky notes on our art that say "touch my art and i'll cut you"

^hey if you cut them in a nice way,,, could you sell them as art?

^ we could.

totally sammy. i actually went around today at school and put notes on everything that even romotely could be affected by other people. some of the notes were just illustrations of me hurting someone if they touch the object...
i jsut dont get how they can be disrespectful.

sam..how do u iron out the fibre prints?
i missed the class in how to do it.... =(

i use a heat press

you know the big heat presses you normally use when you're using drymounting sheet-tac??? well if you put your fibre print inbetween two matte boards and press it....all the curls in the print will magically disappear and you're left with a perfectly flat fibre print. just make sure you use the 2 matte boards so your print doesn't singe/burn.
