Joy Stocksdale
As
a result of studies at Goldsmith's College, University of London
in 1979, Joy Stocksdale developed polychromatic screen printing.
Her printed silk garments, hangings, and quilts have been exhibited
throughout the US. She has taught workshops at craft schools,
guilds, and conferences. She is the author of an instructional
book on her process, Polychromatic Screen Printing. She
lives in rural Sebastopol in Sonoma County, California.
The
innovative process of polychromatic screen printing results in
a limited edition from the original painted screen - with no
color registration. Similar to an extended monoprint process
that produces 5-8 prints from a single painted image. With this
process, all the colors in an image are painted on a single print
screen, then printed on fabric or paper with one pull of the
squeegee. No solvents used.
