Screen Printing

This week in my printmaking class we are going to learn how to do some screen printing. The process is very simple. You make a stencil out of a screen and then you push ink through it onto a medium. The most common form of screen printing is clothes. Almost every t shirt now is screen printed. So learning this technique really translates well into the real world. A lot of stuff that I have learned in art school I dont think that I will ever use in my everyday life. Most of the stuff that I've learned in printmaking I dont think that I will ever use again, but it is good to know how so much stuff is made.
