Well, I haven't been getting a lot of good comments about my Coke bottle painting. One guy even said I had too much time on my hands. :\ Be that as it may, I have lately been experimenting with screen printing. It's just part of an idea I had where I would take the pop art concept one step further. Here I am not just painting mass-produced things in pop culture, but I am also mass-producing the paintings of the mass-produced things! Neat idea, huh?

To give you an example, here is a famous, or should I say *infamous* face in pop culture... it's Maddox from TheBestPageintheUniverse.com! If you disagree that my two-level mass-production idea is ingenius, you are wrong, lol

hmm, best painting in the universe? that's a pretty bold statement there, pal. just because you learned how to change the color of your ink, doesn't mean you have to get an ego about it.

No, this is a bold statement: This is the best painting in the universe.

I am not actually claiming that my printings are the best in the universe. That is a play on the title of Maddox's homepage, which is "The Best Page in the Universe." God, if I really thought my work was the best ever, I sure would need a reality check! *rolls eyes*

As for "copy, paste and solarize?" I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

You know exactly what I mean. Your "mass-production" concept is just you hitting Ctrl+C and Ctrl+V on your computer over and over again, and changing the colors with your solarize function. That's not revolutionary at all. In short...
