The next step

A darker red has been printed
After cleaning the ink from the screen and letting it dry. Then, with my original sketch underneath, I painted screen filler directly on the screen wherever I wanted to keep the image light red. The white areas were already blocked out by the first stencil. I painted a small line of filler around the rectangular image so that it would be the lighter red..
I mixed process magenta and just a drop or two of black with red Speedball Screen Printing Textile Ink to get a rich darker red that will contrast with the lighter red. The result was the photo above.

Then each print was printed with this second red.
I was pleased with the result.
All have been printed two times
