Description
Screen Printing I: All the Basics: This workshop approaches screen printing as a medium of artistic expression, concentrating on basic techniques and experimentation. Introductory screen printing techniques will be covered, from image-making, screen and material preparation, to the use of screen printing as a creative outlet, focusing on the low-tech reductive edition printing process. Artists will develop one edition of prints while exploring the ins-and-outs of the rich world of screen printing. An ideal workshop for beginners; no experience necessary!Enrolled artists will be emailed a small list of items and images to provide closer to the start of this workshop; a material fee of $30 includes image-making tools, printing papers, and access to inks, screens, and a sundry of tools and materials for use during the workshop.
