Program Description

What is Screenprinting onto/ into Encaustic?
Screenprinting onto/ into Encaustic is a workshop that covers the unique process ofscreenprinting pigment sticks, tinted gesso, and screenprinting inks below and onto encaustic surfaces. A simplified approach towards screenprinting makes this process easy to grasp and unites graphic print elements with painting surfaces and motifs. The class will focus on creating images that incorporate multiple printing passes from both fixed screenprinting stations to freeform printing approaches.

Special Notes

  • The class is designed for students who have encaustic experience

  • although no screenprinting experience is necessary.
