On Saturday 29th Sept 2012 Artist Helen Sanlon provided a two hour workshop on Thermofax screen printing. Helen, who designs her own screens, showed us a selection of her printed images, both on paper and fabric. The detail with each print was amazing.
After talking to the group on the process and mediums used Helen gave a quick demonstration using acrylic paint before letting us loose to have a go ourselves.
A very effective way of printing onto a surface. This was a very enjoyable couple of hours although we could have done with a longer session.
Thanks to Helen for travelling to us at the Hillsborough Village Centre on what was a very busy day on the roads.
In this photo of Joanna and I, we are preparing thickened Dyes as a medium to print with.
