What you will learn

These Introduction to Screen Printing On Paper – Photographic Stencils (Thu Morning) courses at Morley College London Chelsea Centre introduces you to this exciting printmaking technique for transferring an image into print media for stunning and dynamic results. ‘Screen Printing’ also known as ‘Silkscreen’ and ‘Serigraphy’ is a stencil-based print technique where an image is created by pushing ink through a mesh that is attached to a screen, with a squeegee. The image outcome is controlled by applying stencilling techniques to the screen’s mesh, such as paper stencils, film stencils, hand-drawn acetate, photo stencils and drawing directly onto the screen’s mesh.
