“ Hello! I recommend that the design of your final project is not so complex; In this way, your improvement will be progressive and systematic. Remember that before sketching, it is good to diagram on the sheet the spaces where each element of the composition will be accommodated. If you already have experience in drawing letters; do not abuse elements in the composition, and bear in mind the limitations of this printing technique. Also, if there is something that I have learned and that I have clear is that we can achieve incredible things with few things. As you can see, you can give free rein to your imagination and develop something that fills you with emotion, that has a part of your heart and soul. Keep in mind how important the practice is. I hope that this course has not only helped you to understand the silkscreen of the Chicha Cartel as a process, but also that you have approached all analogous manual processes. Remember how important is the self-criticism to keep moving forward and improving, any additional concern you can count on me. Well, I say goodbye with the joy of having shared my process within the Chicha Cartel and that in everything your imagination will transform it into everything your imagination allows. ”
