I have recently been interested in producing silk screen prints and really wanted to learn the process having never done it before. So I bought myself some equipment and decided to give it a try at home.
I experimented using the photo stencil technique, which printing the design onto clear acetate and exposing this 'negative' onto the silk screen which has been coated with photo emulsion.
After exposing the screen to about 45 minutes of a bright 150watt lamp, then washing the screen to clear the exposed parts, you then get an image of the design for printing.
Using a mixture of Acrylic paint and screen printing medium, I experimented with printing onto good quality handmade paper.
