PRINT212 Screenprinting 1
May 29–July 9, 2008

This course focuses on screenprinting and its potential to create unique graphic forms with applications for both paper and alternate surfaces. There will be demonstrations followed by hands-on work in stencil preparation (hand-cut, hand-drawn, direct photographic emulsion), color and the mixing of pigments, registration processes, pulling a print, and presentation. Design and pictorial issues will be addressed utilizing the capacity of the process for the surface spatial effects through layering, texture, color, transparency and opacity.
