My Craft
My method of working is that I choose a song that I like or a poem that I like and then I print out the words of the song or poem and highlight with a highlighter pen the key phrases / lines that stand out to me . I then make imagery based on the words of the song or poem.
I let music guide me into making decisions about color , placement and pattern and meaning .
This means that the work is fluid and free from any strict guidelines or rules .
My aim is to create bold , colourful , cartoonish kitsch fashion prints and prints for interiors eg. Wallpaper , cushions, plates
