REPETITION !!!!!!!!!!! PHOTOGRAPHY CHALLENGE

Repetition, Repetition, Repetition is the theme for our new photography challenge. Look for repetative patterns in all that you see. Be it in nature (ie bees hive, spider webs, flowers, rows of trees) or man made structues (ie buildings, stairs, rows of chairs). You can go small scale or large scale. It is amazing how much of our world is made up of pattern when you start looking. You can even create your own intentional pattern by manipulating objects as artist Andy Goldsworthy does (see photo below). This has always been a favorite theme in photography and I am sure many of us already have a selection of photos that we could easily use here. However, we urge you not to rely on previously taken photos, instead get out there and snap some fresh ones. Happy Hunting!

HERE ARE 2 LINKS to TWO of my youtube videos talking and demonstrating about this amazing product:

So once i have my image printed onto transparency film, I take my Ezscreen silk screen which has been coated in light sensitive emulsion (These sheets come pre-coated so they are ready to use). Place it onto a black board, then place the transparency image on top (this part needs to be done in a dark room with no direct sunlight). I take it outside and expose it for 1 minute and 40 seconds (but time varies depending on time of day and strength of sunlight). After i have exposed the image i place it into a tub of water for around 5 - 8 minutes. Then i rinse the screen out under fast running water until the unexposed area (the black) washes away. I then expose the screen to the sun for a further 20mins to completely harden the light sensitive emulsion.

And this is the completed screen ready for printing. I simply use an old credit card to spread the ink over the screen making sure i do one complete full stroke across the screen (holding the credit card at a 45 degree angle). I immediately wash the screen out under fast flowing water and pat dry. I use fabric screen printing ink which washes out in water (which makes the process easy).

I love this product, their website is http://ezscreenprint.com/ (for full instructions and details on how to purchase this awesome product).
