Ms Rooney came to visit Rang a Sé this week and helped us make Easter themed prints using a screen printing technique. Firstly we decided in our groups what our picture would look like and designed templates based on an Easter theme. Then we placed the template under a wooden screen which had a really fine mesh covering it and finally added paint which we moved from one side of the screen to another, covering our pictures, with a squidgy type tool. We then lifted the screen off and peeled off our paper templates to reveal our prints. We’re really happy with the results and learned a lot about printing! Thanks Ms Rooney!
