PrINTRO...

Since I was old enough to hold a pencil I have been drawing and making. I have probably gone through a few thousand litres of paint, a few miles of double sided tape and an endless amount of lead in my 23 years. This all means that YES I love been creative… Illustration, Print and most of all I love COLOUR
 
When I first realised the beauty of print was during my A-Level Fine Art project when I created this make shift printed dress. It wasn't exactly printed but a mixture of acrylic paint, freehand machine embroidery, wire and a collage of vintage fabrics and antique book pages all made into a floral design. These techniques were all applied to an old charity shop nighty and when finished a netted under skirt was added. This is where my love affair with Print began :-)
