Screen Printing – The Painterly Monoprint Method
1 day course
16 September 2025
10am to 4pm
£95 including all materials
Create unique monoprinted screen prints by drawing and painting directly onto the screen mesh using inks, crayons, pastels, felt tips and graphite then using the squeegee to pull the image onto paper. Prints are unique but can be developed during the course of the day by overprinting and adding new layers. There’s plenty of scope for painterly and spontaneous expressive texture and mark making. This method can be combined with paper stencils to create and build up layers to produce complex coloured prints.
