Screenprint

Screenprinting, also known as silkscreen or serigraphy, is a stencil-based printmaking technique in which fabric, originally silk, is stretched across a wooden frame to create a screen. Areas around the image are blocked out, as in a stencil, and a tool called a squeegee is then used to press ink through the unblocked areas of the screen onto paper. The process is then repeated for each different element, creating a layered image.
