Screen Printing On Paper – Paper stencils and More (Friday all day)

About this course

Participants develop their own drawings, photographs or other visual references into screen prints on paper. The course introduces the screen-printing process through demonstrations, guided practice and individual feedback. Learners create hand-cut stencils for each colour, align and overlay them for accurate registration, and investigate background colours and monoprint techniques. The emphasis is on building a practical grounding in screen printing while producing a range of paper prints.
