Tuesdays, August 18 - September 15, 2026
2-6 pm
Expand your screen printing practice through an intensive exploration of photo emulsion, color separations, halftones, and photographic image translation. Designed for artists with prior screen printing experience, this six-week course focuses on professional techniques used to produce complex, multi-layered editions and photographic imagery.
Working through three in-depth projects, students will learn to coat, expose, reclaim, and register photo emulsion screens while developing color separations, creating halftones, and translating hand-drawn, digital, and photographic imagery into finished prints. The course emphasizes technical precision, creative experimentation, and building an efficient studio workflow suitable for independent practice.
Prior screen printing experience is recommended.
[Note: please bring an additional materials fee of $30, paid directly to the instructor on the first day of class.]
