My graduate collection 'Iberian Impressions' is an interpretation of Portuguese and Spanish landscapes which uses a painterly approach to mimic the texture and colour of these regions. It aims to combine solid marks with figurative elements that represent my creative narrative onto both hard and soft surfaces. I have focused on retaining the hand rendered aspects of my paintings to translate onto materials that are intended for a high-end interior application. This collection incorporates an experimentation of colour and form through hand screen print methods of procion, discharge and pigment . Amongst this I have used digital, UV and lino print as well as laser cut techniques to apply my designs to the surface in an innovative way. Designed with inspiration from The Bloomsbury Group artists and interiors, these samples emit a Fine Art approach to Textiles through bolder marks and finer details.
