World Printmakers' Print Workshop Central 
Has anyone had experience gluing together panels of Epson Premium Canvas Satin that have been varnished with Eco Print Shield? I find that both PVA glue and acrylic gel medium do not adhere well to the side of the canvas that has the ink jet coating.

I have issued 16 editions of Original Digital Prints
(published in Original Digital Prints: Intimate Whispers, 78pp, 50+ ils., Estero, FL: J. Bailey Studio). So far the Limited Edition prints (Editions of 10). These are all original images scanned from 35mm negatives (not photographs) and are not copies of any existing artwork. Hal of the Editions are already proofed, printed and signed on a paper substrate. My question is whether I (that is the Master Printer, ERSON9600) could print the remaining five prints on a canvas substrate? The Editions would be numbered from six -ten on the different substrate and would be explained in the Document of Authenticity. I haven’t bee able to find any official guidance on this matter. The Edition quality, in comparing paper and canvas, are identical
in all aspects except the slight surface texture on the canvas.
Does anyone have any opinion on this or any official
statements (outside of BS7876)??
Many thanks for your help–in advance.

Can someone provide me information about the last David Hockey series of digital prints (what kind of printer, what sort of paper, where was it printed, etc…)?
Thank you in advance.
