Bucket Of Ice




This is the second screenprint I did this year using the drawing fluid. I've had run out of wood to make screens but found you can get frames from Ikea, although they are a little big and hurt your wrist when you phillips head them in. This one is on a natural cotton I found tucked away in the quilting section of Spotlight. I normally bypass this section due to the ghastly print options on offer, although have sometimes found some nice surprises.

Tomorrow I'm at Rose Street, come along with a bucket of ice and I'll be your BFF, come and take over for me and I'll give you my first born. I've got two bottles of water in the freezer ready for tomorrow and a whole stack of Valentine's Day Cards ready to go. I spent today photographing the cards again, this time in a lightbox. I didn't need to use lamps, the sun outside was blaring in so the lightbox came in really handy. You can check out my handiwork at the new Etsy Shop.

I really adore that print Anna. It's probably my favourite of all the prints you've done! Will you be selling it?

Great work. I like the texture of this technique and material you used, it's so unusual.
