Flossy Punk in full colour

Flossy Punk at the Olympics

I've been living without a TV. Is it over??

The Olympics has kind of just washed over me I'm afraid but somehow 'Miss Flossy Punk' showed up and is doing 'the rounds' of the Olympic activities to show us how it's done...she's little a bit of London rebel.  You can see the full set on my website:

Lauch of my new website

My new website is...

..I've just finished the website today and along with it some new work: King Carlito, so named after my Aussie friend Carla, for some reason the front view of him resembles her. Don't get me wrong, she is very lovely looking and doesn't bite (often!). I must be missing her and it came through subconsciously. 

Screen Printing at Spike Island

I just finished a lovely course with the truly wonderful Irena Czapska at Spike Island Printmakers. The first image was a 12 layer print I attempted. It was a learning experience. There's a bit where the skin is overlapping the hat which bugs me but I'm hard to please!

The following images are monoprints made using wax crayons and coloured water-soluble wax crayons as well, plus of course the usual acrylic mixed with medium. It's a fast and furious process which you can't really edit, you just have to keep working over the top if you want to change anything. 

You can see with the 4 head portraits that they are all from the same screen which is continuously re-worked until you are happy to stop (mmm, probably never..!).
