Our Speedball sales rep, Allan Franklin, discussed the different methods of burning a silkscreen, allowed those in attendance to print using a "split fountain" and demonstrated a technique for screen printing gilding adhesive. Very interesting new information! Maybe we will all be printing our Christmas cards with a little bling this year.

Robert Bean began a new painting while demonstrating in the store August 1st. He used a photograph that he had specifically taken to make a painting and transferred it to the support to begin the underpainting. Thanks, Robert, for the insight into your methods!! Check out his website: RB Fine Art
