but srsly. can I come make screens with you sometime. I have all the stuff for it and no dark space for the emulsion to set. my friend Eli gave me the keys to her art space too and she has an entire screen print set up that i have access to at any time if you ever want to go.
I'm not using the emulsion technique cause we don't have the stuff for it at ybor. I'm using a prehistoric technique, ha.
"For a more painterly technique, the artist would choose to paint the image with drawing fluid, wait for the image to dry, and then coat the entire screen with screen filler. After the filler had dried, water was used to spray out the screen, and only the areas that were painted by the drawing fluid would wash away, leaving a stencil around it. This process enabled the artist to incorporate their hand into the process, to stay true to their drawing."

I think it's a perfect way to do it for me.
OMG YES, let's make screens together!
