Hi Karin. Yes the video seems to hang up a little on mine too. Try clicking on the YouTube logo and watching it there. The main reason I posted this was as a follow up on one of Gary's video about not over thinking you work and go with the flow. Apparent the clot on this artist's brain blocks the logical side of her brain and allows the creative side to take over. I don't want a brain blockage to help my creativity, but it is interesting to see what it has done for her art.

don't know if it's my computer, but when I try to watch this video it keeps stopping and taking some time to come back, love the work though.

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).
