    Default Can I apply screenprinting ink on T shirt directly with a brush?

    I am new to screenprinting and I have a simple design that I'll like to try on a t shirt. I doubt I need to go through the photo-emulsion process as the picture I am going to use is really simple. I am contemplating drawing the picture on the t shirt directly with a paint brush. Is that possible? What post-procedures do I have to perform so that the print will last and not fade from washing etc

    yes you can. put some cardboard inside your shirt (some tac spray would help I guess) mix the colour as specified and brush away. keep it thin, as thick layers of colour are likely to crack . Dry the shirt.
    maybe check her tutorials out.

    save money, time , and embrace the ridicule by just using puff paint or an iron on.
