Silk-screen printing

Well, my favourite subject in my career this year is "Silk-screen printing" and it's a skill of engraving, useful for printing images, pictures and related to photography. Francisco Sanfuentes is the teacher of this class... and I know him because I took the draw class with him the last year, and he's a great teacher, and a nice guy - he's very compromised with what he does. Also there're two assistants in the class.
I really like this, and I like the silk-screen printing since a long time ago, when I knew and heard of it at secondary school. I remember that my art teacher show us some photos of some contemporary artists like Warhol who used the silk-scren printing on their art works, and I was very excited with the images produced with this skill of engraving, I dind't know how to use it or how to make a print, but the results... I don't know... I really liked it, and I wanted to do a print. All the colours, images and draws, I found it amazing.
This semester in school I have learned too many things, and I've learned things that I didn't know the last year, in this class for example, I learned how to make a silk-screen printing and I have made some prints... I don't really like what I've done now, but I hope to learning more and achieving more for make too many prints and images.

Francisco Sanfuentes is the teacher of this class... and I know him because I took the drawING class with him the last year, and he's a great teacher, and a nice guy - he's very COMMITTED with what he does. Also there're two assistants FOR the class.
