Boats on Pink Lake (Lake Retba, Senegal)


I made this screen print during my second year of uni. It was an edition of 15 and they all sold out! I plan to get some business cards printed and this will be one of the designs.

I had the idea for this print when I was scrolling through photographs of beautiful places around the world. This one is inspired by a photograph of Lake Retba, the red rocks below the lake turn the water a bubblegum pink; I saw the photo and thought 'screen printing would produce that flat bubblegum pink'!

Lithography Workshop









Check out this stunner!!! FWAAAA, look at them marks!! 
A three week Litho workshop and so pumped to keep experimenting with this. I love working at capturing a powerful sense of atmosphere. A friends mentioned how the darkness of the image is quite different to how I present my personal self. And I think it's good to challenge people's pre-conceived ideas of what work I make. That's my mysterious side...

Stencil screenprint




Another day in the printmaking studios! I was using stencils cut out from newsprint paper as it then doesn't cost! And this way I didn't need a pre-planned image to expose ^_^ Here is a picture of Sophie and it was her first time screen printing - she loved it!
