- I've only started painting on canvas a year and a half ago. I have been creative all of my life, I have made cards, scrapbooks, digital stuf like pixel dolls, digital scrapbooks and stuf for the sims 1 and 2. I got to learn about mail art and got hooked on ATC's and chunky's, through the online mail art community I learned about altered art and mixed media and I loved that right away. It took me a while to get brave enough to actually start making altered art and mixed media canvasses, but now I have done that I can't stop LOL I hve learned so much here ! I still have a long way to go but I'm loving every miniute of this journey!

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).
