A’ deilbh na Tíre: patterning the land

I have just returned from Highland Print Makers and had a great few days learning about Printmaking and creating a split edition print for the project.  Developing ideas of ‘patterning the land’ and celebrating  the ‘patterned‘ women  that walked the moor, I have been drawing the small plants and flowers on the moor.  These have been created on film and exposed to screen in preparation for printing onto a digital image.

Working with John Mc Naught, I have learned alot about the subtleties of screen printing, colour mixing and layering of inks to create subtle effects.
