Hi guys, as promised tonight's the night we introduce screen-printing to our adult audience. complete with a glass of wine and nibbles... a great after work refresher!
Its simple and fun with a huge range of applications once you let your imagination get the best of you!! Marie's aim is to show you really easy ways of taking this skill back home and into dining room production without all the fuss!
In a series of workshops we'll cover stencil creation and vinyl transfer incorporating the best of hand and digital techniques that aid the process....and hopefully some further "advanced" techniques for all the arty, design and crafty die-hards out there (like Marie) who no doubt already have a few ideas of your own to spur on! We'll also look at applying designs to both hard and soft materials.
This is a great introductory session ideal for ladies and gentlemen OF ALL LEVELS!!
