QUARTZ DISPLAY

Quartz is a new series of screen prints that explore the geometry of quartz crystals. The design is one primary image printed in two colours then rotated 360 degrees and reprinted in another two colours. This series was also an exercise in mixing and printing transparent colours. These gems are on the shelves in-store. Quartz Festival uses fluorescent orange and pink which may not interpret well on screen.

NICE SHED

Saw this and thought "that's a nice shed".

BROWN BEAR

He's the European the cousin of Black Bear design and a new two colour A3 screen print. Brown Bear's hide is printed in a rich red/brown and his face in a pale caramel. He's been released in the shop. 

ROCKS OFF

New hand pulled screen prints feature a geometric cut diamond design. Each is printed using three colours that create a further three when overprinted. Shine on is the main title taken from Pink Floyd's song 'Shine on you crazy diamond'. They are available now online.

'Shine on' above top was printed using three of the four process colours - yellow, cyan and magenta and 'Shine on 2' below blends candy pink, red and deep aqua.

SHINE ON

I have just printed today a new 3 colour print using CMY and not K, sorry. It's called 'Shine on' and it is a crazy diamond. The limited edition print is a little smaller than A4 and will be available soon.

SHOP FLORA + FAUNA

I have been selected to take part in a Designers/Makers project 'Flora + Fauna'. It will be in the form of a pop-up shop on London's famous Columbia Road, E1 and will be part of the London Design Festival. The dates are 1-30 September, Wednesday-Sunday 11am-6pm. I will be exhibiting my work along with 39 other Designer Makers. It has all the right ingredients for a right classy event.
