This workshop will cover the basics of silkscreen printmaking and arm participants with the knowledge and skills to produce silkscreens on-the-go, in their home studios, and with minimal professional equipment. Working from the framework of DIY creative ingenuity, we will learn various approaches to stencil-making, color-mixing using primarily transparency and pigment, and low-tech press mechanics. When simplified, silkscreen lends itself to experimentation and iterative making. We will use these attributes to produce prints that are creative, intuitive, and improvisational. Materials for printing can range from paper to textiles.
