No previous experience required. Please bring sketchbook or note pad, pencil, fine point Sharpie marker and an apron or old t-shirt to the first class. Class Limit is 10.

Introduction to Relief Printing
Relief printing, you may know it as Linocut or Woodcut is one of the most accessible and affordable forms of printmaking. Techniques learned in this course can easily be applied and used at home and with various materials. Students will be guided through the process of image development, image transfer to various carving matrices, carving, inking and hand printing. Once comfortable with hand printing, the instructor will introduce the class to printing with a relief printing press. Relief printing can be used for creating anything from
greeting cards to fine art prints. Class Limit is 10.

NSCAD Extended Studies – Screen Printing Intensive

Posted April 6, 2016

Extended Studies Screen Print

Registration for the Extended Studies Spring courses opens April 12th. Maria is offering a unique opportunity to approach screen printing in an intensive two week course. All 7 session will happen between June 6th and June 15th. So if you always wanted to take the class but never had enough time to commit to a 7 week course, try this boot camp approach to screen printing. It will be intense and a lot of fun. If you have taken the class before but want more practice, improve your technique and learn a few new things, again this is a great opportunity to do so.


Did you always want to learn a fun artmaking technique but couldn’t commit to a 7 week course? Join us for this two week Screen Printing intensive!
Screen printing, also known as Silkscreen or Serigraphy, is a fun printing technique that does not take too much set up to use at home. In this course, you will learn how to screen print on paper through the use of hand-cut stencils as well as photo emulsion. The class will include exposure to different ways of stencil creation, mixing inks, registering colour layers and printing. Using NSCAD’s state of the art screen printing facility you will be completing two projects in this class.
