Not only is Dangerfork an expert screen printing service, we are also a online print gallery that can be visited by anyone, anywhere, showcasing and selling work from Australia’s bubbling cauldron of great and unique talent. Our exhibitions display limited edition art prints in a wide variety of styles, including tattoo art, street art and graffiti; low-brow art, high-brow art, eye-brow art and everything in between. Dangerfork is comprised of the creative couple Chris Drummond & Megan Quigley. Chris’ love for art grew from painting the streets of Melbourne, Amsterdam, London and other parts of Europe, and even venturing to brighten the streets of Asia and Africa. Megan’s background is in fashion and design, giving her a great eye for art, which is shownScreen printing is a printing technique that uses a woven mesh to support an ink-blocking stencil. The attached stencil forms open areas of mesh that transfer ink or other printable materials which can be pressed through the mesh as a sharp-edged image onto a substrate. A roller or squeegee is moved across the screen stencil, forcing or pumping ink past the threads of the woven mesh in the open areas. Screen printing is also a stencil method of print making in which a design is imposed on a screen of silk or other fine mesh, with blank areas coated with an impermeable substance, and ink is forced through the mesh onto the printing surface. It is also known as silkscreen, seriography, and serigraph.
