Wild World

£148.00

Landscape and the outdoors is a reoccurring theme in my work over the last few years. I am often drawn to the idea of being small in a big world as well as a sense of fragility. I like the idea of the viewer's personal narrative that is constructed when viewing the image. I wanted to create a sense of space, emptiness but also the feeling of being able to go and explore and discover. This is a new version of my print 'On the Road to Find Out'. I printed this version during the third UK lockdown and at the time was feeling the January blues a little - not helped with being unable to see friends and family. I wanted to make the colours most intense and bring a really punch of colour to the artwork that I felt was more muted in the previous versions. I also wanted to give a bit more of a nod to the artist Mark Rothko as this was one of my starting points for this piece of work.

Wild World is a five colour screen print of an original illustration that I have produced. It is printed onto 250gsm Fabriano Unica 50% Cotton cream paper. The size of the print is 19.5 by 28.5 cm with the paper size being 21 by 31cm.

Edition of 60.

The print has been hand printed by myself and is sold unframed and is shipped in a sturdy postal tube.
