With clear step-by-step instructions and numerous illustrations, it explains and describes methods and materials that replace traditional toxic screenprinting systems. The water-based way is the modern option - safer, healthier and more environmentally friendly, as well as quick to learn and accessible to all. The authors cover every stage of the printing process and open up an entirely new area of creative possibilities. Whether you wish to print using paper stencils, screen filler stencils or photostencils (incorporating autographic, digital, photocopied or photographic elements) with opaque, translucent, metallic, gouache or acrylic paints, on paper, fabric, metal or PVC, this guide shows you how it's done. From choosing which materials to use and how to use them, through setting up and equipping a water-based screenprinting studio, to collating and presenting finished prints, this reference should provide all the information that any art practitioner, educator, student or designer will need.
