Screen Printing Tutorial Part 2: Creating a Printing Screen

Step 3Transferring your image from paper to screen

Transferring your image from paper to screen
Lay the screen you have just made flat on top of the paper print out of your monochrome image. (Make sure the screen is the correct way up with the stretched tights in contact with the paper, as opposed to upside down with a gap between the paper & the material ). Use the coloured pencil to trace through the image onto the screen.

At this point you can refer back to the original photograph & add in any additional details, such as the whiskers in the case, which have been lost in the conversion to monochrome. You can include as much or as little detail as you like. I like to draw smooth lines & geometric shapes rather than stick faithfully to the monochrome image, but that's just my personal preference.
