The Shelee Art Style is so much more than just a “RECIPE”. It’s about consistency and understanding how your paints react with each other. If you are interested in learning more I would highly encourage you to join the SheleeArt course. The biggest benefit of the course in my mind is the access to a worldwide community of like minded artists to ask questions of and share your journey.

![Why I Varnish My Laser Prints (And You Should Too!)
Stop struggling with blurry image transfers! In today’s tutorial, I’m pulling back the curtain on a game-changing step: spraying your laser copies with varnish before you ever touch a transfer medium.
If you’ve ever dealt with ghosting, smeared ink, or paper fibers that refuse to budge, this video is for you. I’ll walk you through the science of why varnish creates the perfect barrier and show you my step-by-step process for getting professional, crisp results every time.

In this video, you’ll learn:
The Why: How varnish stabilizes laser toner and protects your image during the scrubbing phase.
The How: My specific spraying technique to avoid pooling and ensure an even coat.
The Results: A side-by-side look at how much detail you can retain with this extra prep step.
