Work in Progress - alphabet screen prints

After pondering just how many hours I spend staring at a computer screen I thought it would be refreshing to draw with a pencil once again. I combined this with a need to use up some small mounts I’d had delivered by mistake and so I am now in the process of creating some single colour screen printed letters. I’m thinking of printing them in a limited range of options - red, black, blue and a retro orange. Something very versatile and affordable to be added to the Etsy shop..eventually.

Here is a small preview but I shall update you with photos of the finished printed item.

Surface Pattern Design

I’ve been trying out some ideas for designs aimed at the men. Not as easy as it seems. It’s all too easy to get carried away with florals and an unlimited palette for the ladies but with the male market you’re tempted to tone it down. In the end I think I’ve got a ’70s inspired selection that could appeal to either. I could see these printed on glossy silk or even wallpaper.
