Screen Printing On Textiles

Spend a day learning how to make beautiful screen prints onto fabric using stencils you have designed yourself. You will learn how to handle screen-printing equipment, create stencils and designs as well as mix colours to create bold shapes, interesting overlaps and fine lines.

Bring along your own images or photos for inspiration, or use the suggestions that your tutor will provide to help you create your own designs. You will practice printing onto paper first before moving onto pieces of calico, or, if you are feeling confident, onto tote bags ready for you to carry home.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and improvers.

A light lunch, refreshments and all print materials are included in your course fee.

Tote bags are available for an extra £5 payable on the day.

Collagraph

Collagraph with Chine Collé.

Collagraph is a loose term meaning a print made from a collage. Experiment with a variety of materials to glue onto a printing plate, usually a piece of card or board which you can seal before using it to print.  Many materials can be used but usually: paper; paper tape; wood; plastic tape and fabric. Layers of adhesives may also be used such as PVA glue, varnish, and gesso to create mark making. We will then add colour to our plates and prints with the use of  Chine Collé and print using a small etching press.  

Chine Collé is a technique whereby we will glue thin papers such as tissue paper or Japanese paper and this is sandwiched between the printing paper and the printed image. This added layer of colour becomes integral to the print.

Students are requested to bring along their OWN images, designs or drawings to use as inspiration.

Tutor will provide a selection of materials for this workshop. This cost is included in your course fee.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and improvers.

A light lunch will be provided.

Screen Printing with Paper Stencils

Learn how to cut your own paper stencils, transfer these onto a screen printing frame and produce wonderful printed images onto paper.

Screen printing is one of the most direct methods of producing multi-colour images. The screen print is produced using a rectangular frame over which a fine mesh has been stretched. Areas of mesh not to be printed are masked out using paper stencils and inks are pushed through the mesh's unmasked areas using a squeegee, so producing an image on the paper surface below.

The tutor will provide all materials for this workshop. This cost is included in your fee.

Students are requested to bring along their own simple images for inspiration.

This workshop is suitable for both beginners and improvers.

A light lunch will be provided.
