New Zealand Mt Cook Daisy No.8

Hand pulled screen print over unique acrylic and spray paint background with mixed media.

500mm H x 350mm W

This is a series I have been excited to launch for a very long time. Each print has its own hand painted background, so while being part of a limited edition of 30 each image is completely unique - no two are the same.

Initial layers are applied in flat spray paint dollops intermingled with loose gestural acrylic paint swirls with varying opacity. A vibrant colour field is created and then the silk screen layer is applied by hand.

The silk screen layer begins as a free-hand ink drawing with intense detail. Each image is then transposed onto a silk screen using traditional methods. Silk screen printing ink is hand mixed and applied to the screen for printing. The resulting images are a vibrant and exciting juxtaposition of intricate and delicate black line work over the top of relaxed floating colour.
