Screenprinting Masterclass with Kelly Stewart


On the 18&19 May, students will explore a combination of mark making, drawing and found imagery to layer up in the screenprint process over a 2 day workshop. Bring along drawings and ideas and source material to be developed into a print. Individual layers will be exposed onto screens and printed by hand, creating imagery with a view to exploration and experimentation. Participants will receive guidance and support to produce unique multi-layered prints while having a great time in the process. This workshop is suitable for those who would like to give it a go and push their comfort zone in a safe and supportive environment.

    Screenprinting Weekend

    On 27&28 January OR 24&25 February OR 23&24 March OR 27&28 April OR 22&23 June, learn all about the dynamic and colorful process of screenprinting. This type of stencil can produce detailed marks such as painterly washes, linear drawings, photocopied images and text. Participants will learn how to print their image in several coloured layers onto paper. To print, the screen is attached to a printing press and acrylic based ink is pushed through the screen mesh onto paper using a squeegee blade. Each layer of colour is printed individually, taking care to register each new layer of ink on top of previously printed colours. This course uses waterbased inks on paper which are not suitable for printing on textiles. During the course, each participant will work on their own print, creating 3-4 layers of colour onto paper. The process is explored through hands-on practice where participants learn the practical skills involved in making a screenprint. Paper size (& maximum image size) on the course is approximately 28 x 38cm. Booking over a month in advance? Use our Early Bird tickets for 15% off! Learn more about screen printing on our YouTube channel here.

    Screenprinting Refresher Class

    Refresher Classes offer an opportunity to consolidate skills, gain valuable printmaking experience and spend time in the studio with dedicated staff support. During each session there will be a demonstration of the screen printing process, and our technician will run you through that from start to finish. You will not be printing your own project, instead this supplementary course will remind you of the processes involved, and set you up to use the studio independently, and more confidently. Time spent in Refresher Class gives you experience and counts towards your workshop induction so you become familiar with using the studio. Once you have attended a refresher course you will be eligible to apply for a full membership with all of the associated benefits. -Bring a notebook- Screen printing has many steps, so please bring a notebook so you can refer back to your notes when you work independently in the studio. Who are they for? For lapsed members of EP- feeling a bit rusty. -Printmakers with good experience in that process but new to EP -People who have completed a weekend course but are looking for some more support/assistance to build up confidence/experience before working in the studio Please Note This course is NOT suitable for people with no experience in Screenprinting - (our weekend access courses are ideal for those new to printmaking) If you are unsure if you are suitably experienced to attend, we ask that you email us in advance of booking at james.harrison@edinburghprintmakers.co.uk with the following information: - When was the last time you did Screenprinting? - What courses have you attended and where? - Do you have examples of prints that you have printed yourself and can you email a photograph? - What other print studios have you worked in? Some people might be required to attend more than one refresher session before gaining access to membership and working unassisted in the print studio. This will be dependent on each individuals previous experience and the complexity of the particular print process.
