February 20 | Analog Screenprinting: Stencils, Marks, and Monoprints (4 Weeks)

In analog screenprinting, students will learn multiple methods for stencil and image generation without the aid of machines (aside from our exposure unit). We will begin by experimenting with cutting, tearing, and selectively oiling our stencils to change how light passes through them, before moving on to the interactions between drawing fluid and screen filler, before finally exploring monoprints using watercolors and transparent base.

Decompress and unplug during this class, while meeting other like minded printers to see what you can accomplish with just a few simple tools on hand.

In addition to gaining authorization to print independently at Spudnik Press, students will have access to Open Studios to work on their projects.
