Lynley commented on Lynley's blog post Sphere test"Thanks, I appreciate the comment. I drew it a few years ago, with nothing but the naked eye and a pastel. Now when I look at it, it makes me want to double check those lines. Thanks again. "
Yevgeny Shnaper commented on Lynley's blog post Sphere test"Well done! Now don't get offended, but there are areas that can be improved (I'm still improving too). The contour of your sphere will almost never be completely outlined. Contours with highlights will appear faint and so there is no need…"

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).
