Workshop_screen printing

According to Customplanet(2019), screen printing is the process of transferring a stencilled design onto a flat surface using a mesh screen, ink and a squeegee.

Fabric and paper are the most commonly screen-printed surfaces, but with specialised inks it’s also possible to print onto wood, metal, plastic, and even glass. The basic method involves creating a stencil on a fine mesh screen, and then pushing ink (or paint, in the case of artwork and posters) through to create an imprint of your design on the surface beneath.
