SCREEN PRINTED DEPARTURES

I have spent the last few months experimenting with screen printing. The last time I worked with this process must be 25 years ago, it has changed beyond recognition from a toxic
messy business to an immediate, fresh, water based system. After experimenting with the
mark making possibilities I have been exploring colours based on 1950's fabrics.

great birds, I photograph and do paintings of birds. I used to do etchings but cannot handle the chemicals involved, but I loved the process. I did a few simple collagraphs with students a few years back yet never saw the potential in it that you have acquired. Seeing your work makes me miss printmaking. your bird pieces are fab. I loved the baby blue tit print, most wonderful, you are an inspiration.
