d move from the heat thus creating color registration problems for the next color in the print. Finally I engineered a heat treating process that helps the sail keep its shape throughout the printing process, cutting the failure rate to less then 5% per run. Low environmental impact:
Keeping the sails out of the landfill is for sure a positive thing and I wanted to make every step of manufacturing these prints green as possible. From start to finish I lightly clean the sails with biodegrade solvents to remove rust and mildew. Next I print with plastisol inks, that contain no air-polluting solvents or volatile organic compounds. Finally the screens are cleaned with 100% biodegradable and non-toxic naturally made from 100% soybeans cleaner. Sail donations:
I truly love all the people who have donated their old sails and I’m always looking for donations. I cover the cost of your shipping so please contact me for more information on how sail donors receive exclusive rates on the prints! About:
I've taken my love of sailing, art, and the environment to a new level by turning used sails into prints. As old One-Design sailboat sails started to pile up in my garage I began experimenting with the idea of printing my art work on them. Each poster design I designed in Illustrator and screen printed myself. Each is hand signed and numbered. Each print is different and has a vintage, screen printed look. Because these are hand made no two prints are ever the same as each print is its own work of art. I also offer the ability to print your own sailboat design on your own sails. Contact me for more info and pricing for these options.
