Discover the world of screen printing in this introductory crash course. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist seeking to refine your skills, this course caters to all.

In this session, we will unveil the core principles of screen printing, from swift paper stencil printing to crafting designs using drawing and blocking fluid. Participants will learn the art of preparing, the process of making a screen by coating it with photosensitive emulsion and imprinting the image using exposure techniques.

Participants will also explore the finer aspects of printmaking, delving into print shop etiquette, ink opacity and transparency, and the secrets of registration and editioning.

Participants are encouraged to bring their sketchbooks and samples of their work as they engage and work with the different techniques. By the end of the workshop, participants will have the knowledge and confidence to keep exploring screen printing independently within their practice.
