As you browse through the portfolios in The Gallery, you will will find that the pieces are created in a number of different media.

Each of these media offer a high quality finish, but there are particular features of the processes which you may not be familiar with, so we have prepared this ‘glossary’ section to give you more of an insight into what the different processes are.

Silk Screen Printing
In this process, the prints are produced by forcing individual inks through a very file mesh screen (silk in days gone by - hence the name). Masks are made on the surface of the screen to only allow the ink onto the particular areas of the image. Unlike the other processes, the colours used in silk screen printing are ‘pure’ and so the finished print is very vibrant.
