About this Artist

As a Kid, VanBeater dreamed of being a deadly ninja assassin rapper. Sadly, he discovered his shoes were too squeaky to be a ninja and he aint never going to have good enough grammar to be a bangin' lyricist (you know what i'm sayin'?). Once he came to terms with the facts, he decided to travel from the past to rock the future. Although he lacks any real ability to "quote rock unquote," He CAN travel through time. This give him hundreds of years of experience instantly. Mix that experience with a self-induced pareidolia; a childhood full of influences such as Saturday morning cartoons, NES, and all the toys he couldn't afford to blow up with M-80s but did anyways; and the general love for the never ending, out of control, run-on sentence, and you have VanBeater. 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.
