This weekend I was invited to visit a screenprinting studio in Hull.
The studio uses oil-based (as opposed to water-based) inks. It was nice to learn about an alternative type of printing, and how the oil-based inks require a slightly different printing process. The oil-based inks produce amazing results in terms of how dense the printed colour is, and are much better for colour overlays. However, I felt pretty light-headed by the end of the day, and i'm not a huge fan of all the chemicals needed to run an oil-based studio... so i'll probably try and stick to water-based inks if I have the choice.
