Screen printing

Yesterday me and a couple of others went to a studio to watch some screen printing and do some of our own, it was great fun and really interesting to learn, made me want a little space of my own and definitely got me thinking of all sorts of ideas i want to do with my work. the process was quite simple to follow but theres plenty to go wrong if you dont take care. The thing i liked most about the printing and the prints was the handmade rough finish it had, no 2 prints were the same and that really made it a unique way of doing things rather than just printing something out. We did both exposure prints and used a vinyl cutter to make a stencil to print with, both techniques had there pros and cons but it was the vinyl cutter that got me thinking about the things that i could do with stickers so thats given me some ideas for next week when we're going back.
