For this years Colours May Vary exhibition, I really wanted to make something that would sell. I thought about it for ages, and had so many varying ideas, but in the end went with this. The concept is making yourself out of order to the rest of the world. Taking time out for yourself.
Attempting a 4 colour screenprint for the first time ever was a little risky, and something that went wrong the first time, so I had to re-do them all. I came out with about 8 decent one's, out of 11, so not bad going!
I was completely shocked to find out that all of my prints had sold out in the first 2 days of them being in the shop, and so I had to send more down, and then I put some digital versions in too. The digital version is really clean and crisp, which I like.
Overall, really pleased with this image, and the amount of work put into it is finally paying off which is such a good feeling.
It was also really great to be back in the print room again- need to keep pushing this.
