Betty Butler's Stencilling Tutorial
Christopher Bull
With ten students to teach, all equipment was ready and laid out together with wall-mounted photographs of work Betty had done previously illustrating the various processes she was going to teach us.
Items required, apart from the usual copper blanks and powders, were: -
-
stiff card (from a cereal packet)
-
masking tape
-
a scalpel and spare blades
-
Polycell Classic glue and spray
-
a flat unwashed "chisel" shaped artist's paint brush and
-
a small wooden stick pointed at one end and chiselled at the other.
Also a firm surface for cutting out on.
