Screen printing, second layer

With already having the first layer of the design, the second layer of the blue colours women was added, with aligning them to be overlaid. Some of the designs weren't as successful because of the bold imprint of the colour or with it being too faded. With waiting for the medium to dry, a second screen was obtained to expose the other positives of which would be needed for the use of the back cover. After coating the screen and waiting for it to dry, the screen had been found to have a rip in it from being in the drying rack. Because of the rip, the process would have to restart again with a different screen as I could no longer use the screen with the rip. With the design already started, I experimented with the crown layer, with creating the gold by using a metallic binder, of which only showed up well with a couple of layers. It was found that because of the un perfect alignment of the women, the crowns therefore didn't align.
