Screen Printing Basics for Home<br />
Studios<br />
Ever wanted to screen print on fabric or paper but don’t<br />
think you have the equipment or space? Then this<br />
workshop is for you! Join Fanny for this four-week<br />
course exploring various methods for screen printing<br />
that you can do at home and that don’t involve<br />
darkroom processes. We will use stencils of various<br />
kinds and drawing fluid to make screens, and do some<br />
printing on paper or fabric. So fun!<br />
All materials and equipment provided except<br />
printmaking paper (available for purchase in the studio)<br />
and fabric items you want to print on, like tees, totes or<br />
towels. We will start with the stencil technique, so bring<br />
your favorite drawing tools and sketch book with your<br />
image ideas to the first class.<br />
