1. Screenprinting the letters.
For my cover, I chose light blue textured paper and wanted to print bright orange letters on it.
First, I tested the orange acrilic mixed with the screen-printing medium for paper. The result was dark, dull and brown. The reason for that is the transparency of the screen-printing medium for paper.
To resolve this issue, I printed with an opaque medium for textiles, mixed with white ink and orange ink.
