Introduction to Screen Printing – 5 Week Course - Leeds Print Workshop

Explore the process of screen printing onto paper and develop your confidence as an independent screen printer. You will learn how to register and layer your designs, and print with multiple colours. You will gain an understanding of the photo stencil emulsion technique and will learn how to coat and expose screens using our UV exposure unit. Your tutor will also introduce you to relevant contextual artists and screen printing terminology.

Throughout the five sessions you’ll try using blank screens with paper stencils, learn how to strip and coat screens, create artwork for screen exposures, explore colour mixing for multi-layer screen prints and even contribute to a participant print exchange in the final week.
