Cityscape

Screen Printed T-shirt

Sixth graders attending St. Paul’s Episcopal School in the spring of 2010 created the quirky drawings and typography featured in these t-shirt designs. The students, all of whom were familiar with Lake Merritt through their weekly volunteer clean-up efforts, participated in workshops held at Lakeside Park and in the classroom. They were led through several life drawing exercises using a variety of mediums, and received hands-on experience making screen prints.

The drawings are variously precise, gestural, scratchy and fluid, but they all have an immediacy to them that bespeaks kid energy and kid logic. The Cityscape design features a single drawing that reduces a view across Lake Merritt to three basic elements: water, skyline, and birds.
