The Fox and the Wolf is back for business!

For the past 3-4 months I had been working and developing on a simple piece that could potentially be sold on. This is my final piece. 


I  am very please with my outcome and how much my skill of printing has developed and improved. There are still areas that I would like to improve but over all I am proud of what I have developed.

I am also selling these and there are 6 to be sold. If you are interested in buying one please contact me and we can discus a price.

Skulk of Foxes

A while ago I crated this print of foxes and decided to develop it further.

I thought about how i could develop this further and thought that it would make a nice repeated pattern. I thought along the lines of wrapping paper and decided to print it onto news paper paper...


I am ecstatic with the outcome and wish I could of developed it a lot further and improved this. I feel it could of been an a lot strong print if I planned it properly and had more time.

Odd Animal Couples

I randomly watched a documentary called 'Odd Animal Couples' and it inspired me to draw the ones that stood out for me (there was a lot). I decided to also add water colours to my illustrations and felt that the softness of the water colours complements the mood of the images. IT makes them less angry and more calm and peaceful. 




                      


I am very happy with there outcomes and would love to develop them at a later date.

Development in the Prints.


I have recently been experimenting with screen printing and sketched up a design that fits with my my development work. these were done over 2-4 weeks and i feel that you can really see a difference in technique and quality.



Curiosity Killed the Cat


I have decided to develop my work (foxes) and started looking at different animals and and observing their features. Here are some of my outcomes.

Pick Me Up

On the 2nd May me and my University went to Pick Me Up in London to view other peoples work to get inspiration. The gallery showing was expensive but it was worth the money. It really opens your eyes to how other people work, what materials they use and techniques. What also helped that the artists were there and you were able to interact with them and get contacts for the future. Here are some pieces of work that caught my eye.
