Introductory Workshops
The best way to learn to print is to make a print!
Cut Editions offers screen printing workshops aimed at those with no previous print-making experience and the more experienced printmaker. Workshops are designed to be fun and affordable for no more than two people.
Our four-hour workshops are an introduction to the screen-printing process. Each participant will make a print which covers many aspects of this process. All materials are supplied by the studio, and no preparatory work is necessary, just bring along yourself and your enthusiasm.
Workshop structure –
- Brief overview of equipment
- Looking at examples of prints
- Making artwork into transparencies
- Exposing artwork on to screen
- Washout / fix
- Proofing the print
- Printing
During the course we will also briefly explain about different paper types, mixing ink, over printing, printing to edge, multi coloured prints and making editions.
