I had my first and only show at the gallery at Pentagram, in September 2003. I hand printed the invites, including their envelopes. This is a photograph of them all drying off ready to be posted ....
We have our Open Studio weekend on December 1st & 2nd, so I decided to have a tidy and found these. Its great to re-discover old work, I often prefer a print having not seen it for a year or so.
Just found out my bid for the Darwin Stamp test was unsuccessful, what a shame. I really enjoyed the project though and below is my finished 'Origin of the Species' silkscreen pitch.
I was put forward by Art Director 'Howard Brown' to make two Stamp Tests for Royal Mail. The theme was Charles Darwin and in particular his journals 'The Origin of the Species' and 'The Voyage of the Beagle'. The comps shown below are Howards original proposal to Royal Mail to introduce my work.
