Screenprinting originated in China (around AD 221) as a way of transferring designs onto fabrics. By using a material mesh (silkscreen) with a pattern embedded in it. You then apply this to an item and forcing paint over the top of the mesh, this allows only the patterned bits to let the paint through and in doing so leave the print on the item when the silkscreen is removed.
Jeanne loves to silkscreen as it is almost like magic, it only takes a couple of moments to do for a really great result. I have never had a customer not happy with the results.
Event Date: Thursday 19 April 6pm-8pm
