I am working on a series of screen-prints on board. Each piece is a one-off print. The composition is built up through multiple layers , slowly evolving an interplay of colour, pattern and tone.
Collage drawings
Some small scale collages, prepatory work for a new group of screen-prints this summer.
Line work
I have been working on hand drawn collages (80 x 80cm), preparatory work for large scale screen-printed collages on board. Lot’s of lines……..
Drawings for new screen-prints
I have been working on a series of drawings and quick collages as preparatory work for some new screen prints. I plan to make some prints in small editions this autumn. I am enjoying exploring the interconnected languages of line, composition, colour, texture and 3 dimensional space within the picture plane.
New Studio and collages
I moved into a wonderful new studio in April 2018 at Grays Wharf, Penryn. There are 9 studios, home to a mixture of painters, photographers, ceramicists and illustrators.
New screen prints
I have finished a new group of experimental screen prints. Each is unique within the group. The prints have multiple printed layers exploring overprinting, transparency and colour relationships. They are exploratory work, developing a way of working and thinking through making. Plans for the new year will be more printing, for use in collage combined with painting, working on paper and board. More images on my Current Work page here.
