Beautiful colors and imagery!

Very nice indeed! Did you create a mold or carve it out of the plaster?

Comment by Palma Rea on October 25, 2012 at 4:37am

Thanks ,all :)

Mike, not that fragile because of the type of modelling plaster that I used. Plaster of Paris would probably not be good for this kind of work. It's been a few coats of varnish and should resist a few knocks.

Very nice, how fragile is it?

I like how the arm looks like a wishbone. 

When I was little I would catch those floating seeds in the air.  Catch it then make a wish and blow it away.

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).
