This three-week workshop offers a hands-on introduction to digital processes for screenprinting. Visual artist and printmaker Chris Glabb will review Photoshop and Illustrator methods, and participants will be able to print an image (up to 3 colours) developed using one of these processes or designed in Procreate.
Throughout the course, the instructor will demonstrate how to:
- Turn a photograph into a bitmapped image that can be screenprinted
- Create a line-based drawing in Illustrator
- Set up layers with bleed and trapping for layering multiple colours
Some screenprinting knowledge or experience is recommended, but those new to screenprinting are also welcome.
