JoyfulArtist said… - So I also create Digital Art.....and totally enjoy Photoshop and using my photos or drawing freehand with the brushes....so I'm way excited about the new CS5 as it has the way cool settings for HDR that is popular right now. It will take me months and months saving for it. Do you watch Photoshopuser? Are you a member of NAPP? I watch the free learning tutorials and right now both Adobe and the photoshop guys are running free tutorials about the new release CS5.

Yevgeny Shnaper said… - Same here, Steven. The speaker is my all-time favorite part of this painting. Not necessarily because I can play music, but rather just how seamlessly it fits with its surroundings almost as if disguising its capabilities : )

- Thank you Steven. I'm finding Ning a bit tricky to set up since my personal website is hosted by Squarespace...a bit of a different configuration. I'll get use to it though. Nice artworks, by the way : ]

Joan Anne said… - HI Steve, smellies, Oh lol could have been nasty smellies! They are perfumes!

- Hi Steve, nice to have you as a friend!
Your digital art is very good. I've been playing with my photos in Corel Photoshop and that's fun. What programme do you use, I need some ideas for my son to get me for Christmas. I've got a bathroom full of smellies and he's into computers so a new programme would be ideal

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).
