my studio space...

getting organised...

hand printed wallpaper...the method.

You just wouldn't believe how many shades of slate I mixed till I finally got the one I needed!

Once the base colour was rolled evenly I needed to wait for it to dry before I over printed with my motif designs.

this is me, screen printing my wallpaper, that right there is my "lucky squeegee!"

Hey everyone,

I hope you have enjoyed the last few portraits I posted on here, they are definitely developing and becoming more stylised, I couldn't have done it with out everybody's feedback!

I'm taking a break from portraiture for a while and have started to produce patterns, solely based on everyday objects, I got my friends to empty their bags and their pockets and I quickly drew each item with a black pen. I then scanned each line drawing into the computer and worked with them to produce patterns.

I find it interesting what things people simply cannot leave the house with out, or just plainly carry about with them in their bags -It says a lot about an individual.

I'll post some examples of the pattern work I have been working on recently...

Random, but I like it when you just walk past stuff that just instantly catches your eye. unfortunately my phone camera is a little bit pants quality.
