Discover the power of a traditional technique with the book Screenprinting! If you're drawn to screen printing and want to better understand how original prints with a distinctive touch are created, this publication will introduce you to the basic principles and creative possibilities of screenprinting.

Screenprinting is a classic printing method used to transfer ink through a mesh onto various materials - typically textiles and paper, and in practice also onto other suitable surfaces. The book explains why this technique is popular among artists and in commercial production, and shows how to work with inks, motifs, and multi-layer printing. Whether you're interested in T-shirts, posters, or other graphic outputs, the publication will help you navigate the process and the possibilities that screenprinting offers.

Instead of promising “perfect results,” it focuses on understanding the process: what is usually needed, the common steps of preparation and printing, and what to watch out for during work. Suitable as inspiration as well as a practical introduction for those who want to start or clarify the basics.
