6107 | Water-Based Screen Printing   

Screen printing, also called silkscreen and serigraphy, is a versatile way to create images using a variety of stencils attached to a fine mesh screen. Stencils can be made from cut materials, fluid materials painted directly onto the screen, or produced photographically on the screen with a light sensitive emulsion. This class will include introductory instruction as well as some advanced techniques focusing on the breadth of methods and techniques used to generate printed images. Materials will be discussed the first class; see website for a listing. No previous printmaking experience required, but some art and drawing experience helpful.
