'Andjela'

Here's a beauty portrait in mono print that I made for my friend's birthday. I think the pattern of the shirt and the hair is quite exciting and luxurious. 

'He Lives in You'

'He Lives in You."A monoprint I made for my friend who loves cats. I took inspiration from spirit animals and being strong on the inside. I digitally coloured the ink to a warm brown, now I have finished university and am working from home I don't have as many colours to play with, in fact all I have is black so I must remember to put some of my weekly paycheque to enhancing my palette! 

River Dancers

A monoprint from the tale of the Snow Queen of overlapping stencils. This is from the scene where Gerda is taken away from her home by the river to begin her journey.

Dancing Dreams

A monoprint I made for the story of the Snow Queen when Gerda is sneaking into the summer palace and sees the dancing dreams of the royal sleepers as shadows on the wall. I used stencils of dancers which overlapped.

I really like the colours I get from overlapping colours in the print work shop and the freedom I had with the composition as I was able to move the stencils around.

Illustrations from the Snow Queen

Recently I've been working on some illustrations from the Hans Christian Anderson Tale the Snow Queen. This image illustrates the scene the roses come to back to life and Gerda is talking to them. I used graphite and colour pencil. I'm still experimenting with the qualities of colour pencils.

This is a portrait of my sisters dog Scrumpy I did for her in the summer, 

Still need to work on my pencil reproductions ... or win the lottery so I can buy a drum scanner

The Fox and The Mask

'The Fox and The Mask,' an etched concertina with a letterpress band

 based on the Aesops Fable

I designed it to act as business card that was a bit more interesting 

Run

'Run,' a mono print concertina of animal bound in a letterpress book with embossing powder

 All the prints are different, I made six and have sold two 

I used studies of animals from my sketchbook to create different compositions
