Screen & Book Arts Materials List / FALL 2023
Your lab fee covers:
Squeegees, newsprint, rag service, colored inks, ink transparent base, drawing fluid, screen filler, stencil remover, haze remover, degreasers, spray adhesive, screen coaters, cleaning materials and various printing equipment and materials in the studio. Since printmaking involves multiples, typically larger amounts of materials are consumed than for a drawing course. Every effort is made to keep your costs at a minimum, but you should still expect to pay at least as much as you would for textbooks and materials in an academic course for these additional supplies, and perhaps more.
List of Required Materials:
Many of these materials you will be able to purchase at Frame of Mind (art supply store @ 1706 Brooks St), others you may choose to order online and some items you can purchase through the Print Studio. I have listed the prices for many of the items below for comparison. You may also consider getting together with a group of other students and do a group order to save money as well. (See list of suppliers at the bottom of this page).
Buying materials through the print studio is purely optional and is intended for your convenience & cost saving. Items sold through the print studio include shipping & account fee's. These items may be purchased during class, so you will need to plan ahead! Not being able to get ahold of me to purchase supplies is NOT a reason to not have work done on time.
