Saturday: 1:30 PM - 4:30 PM
Athenaeum Art Center

Materials: Ink and studio materials will be provided. Students are responsible for paper and screen frames. No prior experience with printmaking is necessary.

This workshop-style course introduces students to the popular and fun printmaking technique of silk screen. Students will create vibrant, multicolor prints using water-based silk-screen materials while exploring their own style and applying this popular method to their own imagery. The direct-on-screen stencil techniques, such as screen filler/drawing fluid or wax crayon, as well as indirect photo-emulsion methods of drawing on Mylar, will be shown; digital file preparation will be explored. Stencil-monotype-printing and mixed-media approaches will be covered. Students will learn how to set up their own DIY studio and will learn all aspects of preparation, setup, and production of fine art prints.
