The Guardian


A rather poor scan of an illustration I did for The Guardian a couple of weeks back.

Printing

I started a printing evening course with aim of getting to grips with screen printing. However when I started the course I found they only had a very basic set up, and the printing available would be more along the lines of lino, wood cut, dry point etc. I've really enjoyed getting back to basics, feeling that I can just experiment and not worry about the out come. The print above was done with different coloured blocks of lino. I've also bought myself a Gocco
printer but haven't had a chance to try it out yet.
