a trip to mclogan's....

Flying down streets, trying to get to downtown, to the edge of the fashion district to a reccomended store. McLogan's the screenprinting supplier to many companies in the area. They sell the equipment the same price to anyone, and with all the stuff I bought, they were asking me if I was opening a store. They were really helpful and have heard about my project before.
after taking about a hundred photos of the colored inks (they are all very bright and some even floursecent) I decided to start with some emotional basics, for mixing of course; black, white and red. I'll be getting more tommorrow morning when I pick up a light to expose the screens, as exposing them in the sun this past weekend, though seemingly a good idea, was reccomended against by enough screen printing afficionados, that I decided to not even try it and wait for when I can build an exposure unit myself.
