Screen Printing day out!

Today I had a brilliant creative day at learn2print in melbourne http://learn2screenprint.com.au/
anyone keen to learn the basics of screen printing or even just to do a refresher course should go and do this course!
I did screen printing in uni years ago and was keen to polish up on my skills.
Miss Laura Day runs these courses from her studio at the back of her house in the Melbourne suburb of  Pascoe Vale. You walk in off the suburban street and enter a relaxed artist studio retreat. Everything you need is provided, screens, ink, card to print on, tote bags to print on all is included in the price (except lunch, dont forget to bring your own lunch).
Initially I thought $159 for the day was a little steep in price, but after spending the day there I walked away with the confidence to be able to recreate this at home.
See pictures below
