Facilitator prints second color on the prints. Participants are holding the prints that they had printed. |
Original prints are not reproductions of paintings. They are conceived as prints and often made completely by the artist. In this blog I will show steps involved in making an original screen print and other related information by a Roycroft Renaissance Master Artisan, emeritus. Her focus is largely on the Arts and Crafts movement.

Memorial Day, 2013
On this glorious Memorial day, I went to East Aurora to give a demonstration for a Road Scholar group. I had taken many of my "proof books" - they show the steps in printing. Each screen print is made up of layers of ink printed one on top of the other. After explained how the stencil is made on the screens, I invited each participant to print the second color on a print that I had designed to print with just two colors and two screens. I had printed the green backgrounds and they were to print the black stylized flower design on top of the green rectangles on the Stonehenge print paper. I had cut each print paper 7" x 9" before I printed green. This will enable the print to fit nicely into an 8" x 10" ready made frame
