In this practical workshop you will learn how to screen print onto paper using hand cut stencils. Participants will draw their own design and then use scalpels to carefully cut out stencils of their design. You will screen print your design onto paper using the hand cut stencils, colourful water based inks, silkscreens and squeegees. Participants will learn how to register and screen print two different layers of colour as you create a small series of multi coloured prints to take home at the end of the day!
This workshop is suitable for beginners, people looking to refresh their skills and those with some printmaking experience.
This is a hands on workshop in which participants will be using equipment such as scalpels and squeegees. Some of the workshop will be seated but participants will also need to stand to be able to screen print.
What to bring:
Please bring some images or ideas to work from. Simple bold designs and block shapes work best for screen printing. We will be working on A4 sized designs in the workshop so small images may be difficult to use.
All materials and equipment will be provided. But please bring an apron if you have one or wear clothes you don’t mind getting ink on. Bring some basic drawing materials including a HB pencil and remember something to take A3 sized prints home in.
This workshop is suitable for beginners and those looking to deepen their knowledge of screen-printing. Recommended for ages 18+. The workshop will take place in the Winterbourne Centre for Horticulture.
