	Jonah@diyscreenprinting.com		Bio Took my first printmaking class at Western Washington University in 1997. I enjoyed making posters for concerts on campus, political posters for NORML, and printing flyers for KUGS 89.3, the college radio station where I volunteered as a Disc Jockey. I moved to Portland in 1998. In 2000 I started an apprenticeship in the fast paced business of commercial t-shirt printing. I had an awesome mentor, Anthony Svelt, owner and operator of Svelt T-shirt Co. Unfortunately, for me and the world, Tony passed on in 2003. He will be greatly missed. I continued to print shirts for bands including Ghost Motor, Sonic Death Monkey, Steel Stilletto and Micronesia, Unicorn Rodeo, Jupiter Jones All-Stars. In 2004, with the aid of a longtime friend and fellow screenprinter, C. Chapman and I hashed out the Do-It-Yourself approach to T-shirt printing, we launched DIYscreenprinting.com and put together my first screen printing studio, in the basement of the 5 St*r Boutique, to teach the finer points of DIY screen printing.
