fun with screen printing
Added 2021-02-26 02:51:36 +0000 UTCabout the process:
screen printing is a process through which a stencil is created on clear film then taped to a mesh screen with light-sensitive enamel coated on it. light is then exposed to the screen and any parts that were blocked by the stencil can wash away with water while the rest of the enamel that was hit with light hardens. the screen now has the stencil and ink is pushed through the screen with a squeegee.
I made a 14-color screen print series based on the painting of Atlas on my desk. Each color is printed on a separate layer, so I hade to go through the whole process of setting up the screen for printing every 2 colors as that's how many stencils fit on the classroom's screen for my 11x14" print.
I started the Atlas print series on Feb 8th and just completed them today. Earned a lot of screen printing experience through this!
I'm excited to start printing my own shirts using this screen printing technique. I like printing by hand like this!
