Yevgeny Shnaper said… - Hi, Mary. If you are referring to the Representational Barnett Newman artworks, I use regular Elmer's white glue. You might find a different brand in your region, but as long as its white glue . You will need to let it fully dry before applying the oil pastels. Now, I have tried using oil paint instead of oil pastels, but it takes FOREVER to dry, unless you want to purchase the expensive hybrid oil paint which is alcohol based, I believe. In the end, the results aren't as great either and oil paint stains canvases more than oil pastels. Hence, it will be harder to remove if you want to start over. I haven't tried using acrylics or watercolours, so I can't tell you much about that. However, I can guarantee that the highlights will be a pain in the ass to do with acrylic paint. LOL.

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).
