One of the things we love most at Print Club London is watching beginners grow into confident artists. Many of the creatives who come to our workshops start out just curious about screen printing — and end up discovering a lifelong passion.
When you buy their work, you’re not just purchasing a print — you’re supporting that journey. You’re encouraging a human being who’s learning, experimenting, and finding their voice through ink and paper. Every sale helps artists keep creating, keep growing, and keep doing what they love.
Keeping Craft Alive
We’re proud to be part of a community that celebrates craftsmanship. In an age where images can be generated in seconds, handmade prints take time, patience, and a little bit of soul.
Screen printing connects us — to the materials, to the process, and to each other. Whether it’s a limited edition run or a first-ever print made by a student, each piece carries that sense of human care and attention that makes art truly valuable.
When you choose to buy artist-made prints, you’re choosing connection over convenience. You’re choosing something with a heartbeat — something that exists because someone cared enough to make it.
At Print Club London, we’ll always champion the handmade, the imperfect, and the beautifully human side of art. Because that’s where creativity really lives.
There’s something special about owning a print that’s been made by hand. In a world where so much art is digital or mass-produced, a hand-pulled screen print feels alive. You can see the tiny textures of ink, the slight variations in colour, and the evidence of a real person behind the squeegee. Each print carries its own character — a little reminder that art doesn’t have to be perfect to be beautiful.
Screen printing is wonderfully hands-on. Every layer of colour is pushed through a fine mesh screen by the artist, one at a time. It’s a process that takes patience, a steady hand, and a bit of trust in the unpredictable.
No machines here — just ink, paper, and the satisfaction of seeing something take shape right in front of you. The artist mixes colours by feel, lines up each layer by eye, and embraces the small quirks that make each piece unique.
When you buy a print that’s been made by the artist, you’re getting more than a reproduction — you’re getting a piece of their time and care. Every print is a reflection of the person who made it. The ink stains on their hands, the studio smells of paper and paint, the quiet rhythm of the process — it all ends up in the final piece.
Handmade prints tend to feel warmer and more human. They often use richer inks and longer-lasting materials. And by choosing to support the artist directly, you’re helping to keep traditional crafts alive in a world that’s moving fast toward automation.
One of the best parts of hand-pulled printing is that no two prints are ever quite the same. A little extra pressure here, a lighter pass there — these tiny differences give each piece its own fingerprint. It’s art that proudly wears the mark of the maker.
Rather than chasing digital perfection, handmade prints celebrate the human touch. That’s what gives them soul.
Owning a handmade print isn’t just about decorating a wall — it’s about connection. You’re connected to the artist, to the process, and to the idea that creativity still thrives through human hands.
So next time you pick up a screen print, take a moment to notice the layers, the texture, and the feeling behind it. You’re not just buying art — you’re supporting craft, care, and individuality.
