Silkscreen is the ideal printmaking medium for those who enjoy experimentation and a variety of approaches to art. It is especially suitable for multi–color work. Water–based inks can be used on paper, fabric, canvas, and metal to create infinite colors, textures, and images. The course covers photo techniques, stencils, and drawing directly on the screen, and includes both monoprinting and edition printing. The prints are easy to envision and plan, as they are not reversed images. 

Limited to six students.

Includes an additional 12 hours of studio time each week of the class.

Margaret Nussbaum is a silkscreen printer, lithographer, and painter. She has exhibited her work in group shows throughout New York State, most recently in a two–person show at the Garrison Art Center. She is a founding member of MGC. .
