Thermofax screen print based on child’s drawing –   Linda Germain

Children’s drawings are so fresh and authentic.  Before the kids get to that censoring stage and when they still draw with confidence.  As a parent you could make a thermofax screen from these line drawings and then print invitations, note cards or t-shirts.

I made this screen from my nephew’s sketch that he did a few years ago.

  • Save some of your children’s drawings
  • Photocopy them to the correct size with a toner based copy machine
  • Get a Thermofax screen made
  • Set up your workspace
  • Prepare your papers or materials for printing
  • And pull your prints

I was thinking that this drawing would make a cool invitation.

Are you inspired by children’s drawings?
