Printmaking 101, Fall Semester 2011

This is a Screen Print and Oil on Canvas, of Paul and David. Printing on a stretched Canvas proved to have its own challenges.

Most challenging is, the Silkscreen is not attached by clamps to the table, to insure its stability. That left it up to me to hold the Screen COMPLETELY STILL, as I pulled the Acrylic Ink across the image, on to the canvas!

On this canvas, I played with layering mixtures of OIL, GAMSOL, & GALKYD OIL, along with some rubbing and sanding. I was pleased with the result.
