#houstonprintmaking
Going all the way back to 2012, this screen print is a collaboration between Pat Masterson and Carlos Hernandez. Originally hand drawn on mylar, the image was later burned onto a screen and hand printed.
What’s it all about? Honestly, just pure fun. Pat and Carlos started wondering what Buddy Holly might be doing in hell, and the whole thing spiraled into this wild, humorous, oversized print full of energy and absurdity. It wasn’t meant to be overly serious or overthought — just two artists laughing, experimenting, and pushing imagery around until something unforgettable appeared.
The print itself is massive, loud, and impossible to ignore. You can feel the spontaneity in it — the kind of collaboration where ideas bounce back and forth in real time, fueled by humor, curiosity, and the joy of making something ridiculous together. @electriccalavera@patrick.masterson1
