I am taking part in Norwich Print Fair again this year which is taking place from the 10th to the 22nd of September at St Magarets Church on St Benedicts Street so come down and say hi! 

Busy like bee

Sorry for not updating this for a while but have been involved in some quite exciting projects as part of Print to the People. First of all printing fabric to decorate the trees that line the route the Olympic torch is taking into Norwich and then running workshops at Latitude Festival - you can see more photos here.

Mighty Boosh - Mighty Excited

Am a massive fan of the Mighty Boosh so pretty much nearly died of excitement when Dave Brown asked me to screen print the posters for an upcoming exhibition of his behind-the-scenes photographs which is at Flint Hair Salon from the 8th July 

Bitches!

Latest lot of printing for Norwich based record label Gravy. 

A CMYK cd sleeve for Bitches who are plying in Norwich on the 16th June at Olives

Print Odyssey

Now Print Odyssey is open I can post photos of my latest work which is in the exhibition. They are a series of three CMYK prints. I have never attempted CMYK printing at this size (they are A2) so there were a few headaches but I am pretty pleased with the results!!

Print Odyssey is open!!!!

Thank you so much to everybody who came down on Friday night for the private view and for the super talented Jo Millington for taking beautiful photographs which you can see here
