Drawing, December 28
I liked what Gary did with the photo app to break this image up into its constituent parts, and it made a good drawing exercise. I am happy with the result.

ha ha this one is a better likeness than the one I did in colour (not posted). I will have to try again with that. What was interesting about this one was getting texture into a drawing done in dry medium and one colour only, I enjoyed that challenge.
I also want to try making this image using a pallette knife and some thickening medium, making an impasto portrait. That will need to be a weekend project, definitely!!

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).
