Using Gel Medium to Block In a Silk Screen

Just found this little tutorial in the on-line Art Trader Magazine about using gel medium to block in a silk screen.  I believe the author called it Guerilla Screen Printing.  http://www.arttradermag.com/how-to/guerrilla-screen-printing/  I'll write a follow-up on how well this works once I have tried it.  Would like to include pictures here, but don't want to infringe on a copyright.

  2. Mia, I, too, thought this might work quite well. Don't know how many cleanings the screen would take before the image would start to degrade, but it's worth a try, especially if one doesn't need to use the screen a gazillion times.
