Digital Printing Alternative Surfaces:Tyvek

Tyvek is an incredible surface to print.  The prepared tyvek I used is available at Digital Art Supplies in San Diego.  This type of tyvek creates a beautiful matte finished print.  Tyvek has been one of my favorite surfaces because of it's melting properties.  In this video workshop I show how I work with tyvek and then you go your own way to see how you like to heat distress this surface.  There are some finished pieces shown in the video and also the pdf written information.
