In between preparing for my upcoming March show, making 99 ceramic rings and trying to stay awake during the dark scandinavian november afternoons I did have time to visit my friends Rune and Rune’s silkscreen studio. After working out there during the summer I got excited about doing more. It’s a lot of fun. This time I opted to do the image in gouache so I could work in my current element which is with brushes. The last one I did with pencils. Maybe its for nerds but the outlines gets different using a brush. Second step was driving everyone crazy finding the exact red, the exact pink, the specific indigo blue that has become my preferred blue and then of course something that gets close to the chrome oxide green that has been the color of many of my leaves since Under Distant Palmtrees. I added lots of process shots further down this blogpost.
The print is now available though my webshop here. It ships for free to the worldwide world yet without the frame as to avoid shipping glass and wood around. I hope you like it.
