What a fun project!!! I'm painting on screen at this very moment. I sketched my pattern to the size of the screen I wanted to use. The screen is cut a little larger than the actual painting area. Using the cardboard from an 8x10 picture I already had, I folded the edges of my screen so that I could stay within the viewing area with my painting. I use acrylic craft paints. I laid my screen over my pattern and used some chalk to trace the pattern onto the screen. Then I started dipping my brush and using both long strokes and dabbing strokes, I painted it. When I'm finished, I will use tube paint (often used in fabric painting) and outline and accent the painting, using coordinating colors. Since this is a snowman, it has coal black eyes, so I will use white tube paint to "draw" an asterisk on each coal so the eyes 'sparkle'. I am going to use polyACRYLIC spray to seal it...and then FRAME IT. (Don't forget to use the tube paint to sign & date it!! Another idea I'm anxious to try is to use gesso to fill in the areas where I want to paint, let it dry...filling in all the holes and providing a more solid surface to paint on. This will allow me to do more shading...more detail; however, this snowman is looking very very cute. Note: I'm not worrying about some of the holes filling with paint while others remain unfilled. It is just adding to the interest of the snowman. VERY CUTE--hope you try it!!

Why does a curtain inside the house stick to the screen when the window is open?

When a window is open, air flows in and creates a slight suction effect inside the house. If a curtain is lightweight and close to the window, it can get sucked towards the screen because of this airflow. The curtain then gets trapped or sticks to the screen due to the pressure difference between inside and outside the house.

How can you get paint to stick to your cement when cement gets wet when humid?

Paint it when it is not humid. If it's a bathroom, avoid using it to take a shower for a day. As long as you can get a four hour window where the surface isn't wet, you should be fine.
