New to screen printing? Or already familiar with the process but need a refresher? This workshop is the one for you.
What You’ll Learn
This workshop teaches the basics of screen printing using exposed screens with a photo stencil (Note: this doesn't need to be a photograph, it can be an illustration or design.) and printing on paper for creating art prints*.
Screen exposure
You’ll be exposing 1 colour image to screen as this workshops, focuses on getting the technique and process down. You learn how to use UV light and photo-emulsion to 'burn' your artwork directly into the mesh for printing with our large screen exposure unit and dryer.
Registration:
We’ll show you methods for lining up your paper so every print is perfectly centred and while we’ll only print 1 colour -you’ll gain the knowledge and process for for registering multiple colour prints.
Pulling prints:
You'll learn the techniques of balancing pressure and angle to achieve crisp prints on different materials.
Bonus:
You'll go through the basics of screen printing but we'll also show you a few extra techniques you can use and ways the screen printing can be varied for different mediums/situations.
What’s included
It includes all materials needed for printing a short edition of art prints - including paper, stencil materials, tracing paper, medium & ink. However we do recommend bringing any interesting papers/surfaces to print on if you want to get creative. (could be pre-painted backgrounds, collages, old magazines, interesting papers etc).
The workshop counts as a studio induction so you can continue using our print studio after your workshop (pay as you go membership).
Final note on merch/t-shirts:
*while this is a paper based workshop - a lot of the techniques you learn are transferable to other areas of screen printing such as printing merchandise and t-shirts. These have their own specific nuances, so while we won't specifically cover these, you'll get the key skills of creating screens and pulling prints down and we're happy to chat about variations during the workshop.
