Multi layered screen-printing
Screen printing is a printing technique where a screen mesh is used to transfer ink onto a substrate, except in areas made impermeable to the ink by a blocking stencil. A blade or squeegee is moved across the screen to fill the open mesh with ink, and a reverse stroke causes the screen to touch the substrate momentarily along a line of contact. This causes the ink to wet the substrate and be pulled out of the mesh apertures as the screen springs back after the blade
has passed. One colour is printed at a time, so several screens can be used to
produce a multi-coloured image or design.
Learn the art of screen-printing using drawing fluid and block technique to
form a layered images using more than one screen to print your image
Or opt to expose acetate of your images onto a screen. (There is an
additional cost for the exposure of more than one screen)
