Screen prints, also called Serigraphs, are prints produced by silk screen. In this process, each color is applied separately, and only after the previously-applied colors are allowed to dry. Typically, the colors are not intended to mix, unlike process color or offset lithographs. Screen prints are limited to the amount of colors you use.
