New Print – Always Question Everything

So I’ve created a design for a limited edition screen print. It’s called “Always Question Everything”. I’m really interested in great minds such as Einstein, Feynman, Tesla, and Da Vinci and the common factors that make their thinking so great. One common trait of genius is curiosity, and having an insatiable appetite for information and exploration in the quest for knowledge. This is the inspiration for my simple little design.

Nokia E71 – Universal Everything

It really is a beautifully shot piece of film and the visual works perfectly with Jose Gonzalez’s cover of The Knife’s original electro track, “Heartbeats”. The LCD TV at the end looks a bit dated though!

20:20 Print Exchange & Exhibition Submission

So I finally managed to get my prints submitted to Hot Bed Press for the 20:20 Print Exchange. I had a few issues getting the silver foil blocking to apply properly to the Somerset art paper, but overall I’m pretty happy with the results. Considering it was my first proper attempt at Zinc HydroPlate etching (and etching in general), I think the final prints look pretty good. I definitely learned a lot about inking up and plate cleaning at the weekend! Read more »
