".........and paintings done by elephants can also sell for peanuts......Beauty is in the eye of the beholder......There are some people who probably strike the canvas with charcoal, paint, or ink.....scribble, scratch, and smear and call this…"

"I like this one, when I was scrolling through the pictures and this one popped up it made me pause, with darkness of it all and the bright colors trying to emerge."

Summer 2009 Art Exhibition

Posted on September 22, 2009 at 3:17pm 3 Comments

These pieces are from my first art exhibit where I was the featured artist in this 2009 Neighborhood Collective, in Florence, SC, USA, this past summer. I am a self-taught artist who absorbs inspiration from everything and all places. All my life I have been artistic, but never had any art lessons. At age 5, I knew then I wanted to cut hair when I grew up. I am a hairstylist in my town, Florence, SC, and for years have displayed artistic creation on hair.



It was during 2006 when my… Continue

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

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIc02QBihJQ&feature=share&list=UUM6N5AOYoyg6eAkbcDWpNFg

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zAPZn5TEyM&list=UUM6N5AOYoyg6eAkbcDWpNFg&index=41

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).
