About

Learn how to combine screen printing and embroidery in an organic and creative way. Screen printing can be painterly or photographic and mechanical. You'll learn how to create an image on the screen to use as a stencil, print it using water-based inks, and then add simple, decorative embroidery stitches to embellish your design. The possibilities are endless!

Some learning outcomes and demonstrations:

  • Brief lecture on the history of screen printing, what types of imagery you can expect from different methods, and how to use the screen for a range of results.
  • Demonstration of image and stencil making. You'll create your stencils.
  • Lunch break.
  • Demonstration of printing techniques.
  • You'll print your designs.

Dana Seeger

Dana Harris Seeger was born in San Francisco and split her childhood between California and Indiana. She pursued her passion in high school and college and received a bachelor's degree in painting from Anderson University in Indiana in 2004 and a master's in fine arts in printmaking from San Jose State University in 2011. She is a member of the California Society of Printmakers. In 2014, Dana co-created an art studio and school in San Jose, Calif., called the School of Visual Philosophy. Her work in printmaking and painting helps her connect real to imagined memories and her life experiences to her heritage. Growing up as a second-generation Baltic American, she has always tried to connect the artifacts acquired from Estonia and Latvia into her own story. She lives in Poulsbo with her husband (a sculptor), daughter, and twin sons.
