Project for Crafty Monkies

I'm still playing around with glue here to see if it's usable to screen print. Crafty Monkies has gathered a half-dozen artists to create a work, as well as document how it was created. So, I'll be starting that soon. The theme is "Where is the Love" so I had a go at script. I'll keep you posted.

Glue Trick

Karen Cummings (KCummings.art) posted IG where she used dribbled paint, dried, then added to a collage. I tried washable glue on a sheet of freezer paper, dried it, and set it behind a screen. I'll check tomorrow if the glue removes clearly after being covered with thickened dye. Thanks, Karen!

Phew -- Glue!

It worked well, that glue screen. I've got it printed and through the washout in a day, just to see if it was as nice as I'd thought. I cut the mixing blue with print paste to lighten, added a border, and like this as a workable background. It's on the wall hanging out.

Itchin

I can't wait till this glue dries and I can try it out in a print. I'm using Elmer's washable school glue, and from other tries, it may or may not wash out completely. So, I've got a sacrificial screen to use. Note that I've left off taping the screen. It works, just differently from the taped ones.

Time for More Fabric

Now that I'm back at the home studio, I've got some pieces I've finished and washed out, ready for adding to the website store soon. I like this one. It's a piece I've screened with a washable glue resist. That's where the white line comes from . It seems to last a long time, and I love that discovery!
