Yes, all of these terms can be a bit confusing and you can easily get lost and feel stupid when reading the websites of screen printing artists and galleries.<\/p>

That's why we started to list and explain the most important terms here - We googled that for you =)<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

A printing process in which ink is transferred through a fine-mesh screen onto the material to be printed. With very few exceptions, all of our prints are created using the screen printing process. Screen printing is simply our thing!\u00a0<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A stencil that is applied to the screen to create the pattern or image. In one place paint comes through the screen, in another place it doesn't.<\/p>

Unsere Schablonen entstehen durch Belichten des Siebes (das wird weiter unten erkl\u00e4rt). Man kann aber auch mit einem Messer Folie schneiden und so eine farbundurchl\u00e4ssige Schablone erzeugen.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A mesh stretched over a frame to allow ink to pass through.<\/p>

Screens can have different mesh counts, larger or smaller holes through which the paint is pressed with the squeegee.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

The process of breaking a design into separate colors that are printed one at a time.<\/p>

You can do this in different ways, for example in Photoshop. We usually design our motifs for screen printing right from the start and often work directly in layers that later create the individual colors.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
