Warpaint Press is posters. We created Warpaint to unite the best printing on the best paper with the best artists. From the die hard collector to the novice art appreciator, Warpaint Press was created for you. We will bring you limited editions, timed editions, and exclusive variants. The best screen printed posters by the best designers in the business. That is Warpaint Press. We're not doing this as a cash grab. The people involved at Warpaint Press all have day jobs. We're doing this because we love posters and we want to be able to share what we love with others. It's not always easy to track down posters from designers based out of the UK or Australia or Japan in the United States, and if you can, the shipping prices are so outrageous that the poster becomes too large of an investment. We want to rectify that, making posters attainable for people on every level.Screen 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.
