3. WHAT IS SCREENPRINTG?

In a nutshell, screen printing is a stencilling process. Ink is pulled through mesh onto a surface using a tool called a squidgee. The mesh has been stretched tightly onto a frame and the image is created by passing ink through a stencil that sits on the mesh. Stencils can be made in a variey of ways, Maria uses both paper cut stencils and a technique that involves coating the screen with a light sensitive emulsion, then exposing or buring an image onto the screen using a UV light. Each colour needs to be printed separately using a differnt stencil and so each layer represents a different colour. The more colours present in a print, the longer it takes to produce.
