The Science of the Mesh and the Micron
Unlike digital printing, where a computer translates an image into millions of microscopic Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black dots, screen printing is an analog process of filtration. We use mesh...

The Anatomy of the Screen (and why it matters)
To understand why a screen print feels different, you have to look at the mesh. We aren’t talking about a simple stencil here. At Oli Fowler Art, I use high-tension...

The Physics of the "Ink Lay"
Most modern digital prints (the ones people call Giclées to make them sound posh) work by spraying microscopic droplets of ink into the fibres of the paper. It’s thin, it’s...

The Physics of the Mesh and the Stencil
Unlike digital printing, where a tiny nozzle sprays microscopic dots of CMYK ink onto a page, screen printing is an analogue process. It starts with a frame stretched with fine...

The Physics of the Mesh
At its core, screen printing—or serigraphy, if you want to be fancy about it—is a stencil method. But instead of cutting shapes out of paper, we use a fine polyester...
