Investigate print media trends in contemporary culture while acquiring the necessary tools needed to make an artistic statement in the medium of screen printing. This workshop focuses on water-based photo screen printing techniques as well as low-tech stencil printing methods. Technical demonstrations cover beginning photo screen printing processes, one- and two-color registration, a combination of hand dyeing, draw back into, manipulation of the surface, water-soluble markers and hand-cut and photo stencil methods. Each student creates experimental, unique prints and acquires a new skill set in printmaking techniques.
