Silk Screen Class

Class will include three handouts as well as the kit. Handouts cover where to buy supplies, more screens, etc., another one on tips on using the silk screens, especially on clay in it's various stages (green ware, bisque, etc), and several techniques to use the silkscreen's. A third handout has a list of websites showing silkscreened images on clay by ceramic artists around the world. If UV rays (i.e., sunshine) is present, we can make screens in the morning, then spend the afternoon trying the various techniques to get the images onto clay. If the sun is not shining, I will simulate the process of making the screens as a guide for you to make your own screens when the UV rays are available at home. We can then use my previously made screens to use in the afternoon.
