ThermoF.A.Q.'s
Learn how easy it is to create your own screen printed cloth! In this class you will gain hands on experience with the funnest surface design technique around! Use screens with or without a frame, try out discharge, paint, and foil. Learn to layer imagery as you create your own printed art postcard. Bring your creative spirit and a willingness to play.
Let Lyric guide you through the basics of what, exactly, a thermofax screen is, and how it’s made. Then she helps you begin your own creative journey as she shows you how to find and design your own imagery and have a custom screen made for you. Learn all about the basic supplies you will need and then get printing!
