2 colour screen print . Image size: 297mm width x 420mm height.Created: 2022.Edition of 10. I first visited the Lake District the day after the Great Storm of 1987. I recall thedrama of the place; the crags glowering, the lakes shining, the trees shaking andthe rivers churning. An obsession was born then that has grown to create anhuge emotional tie that will remain forever. I decided some time ago to draw what I has seen, to keep a record for the futureand to produce a body of work that stood the test of time. I wanted to create alegacy to share with my family and friends. These memories form the basis of the LAKE DISTRICT NATIONAL PARKseries. Each print has been created by hand, from the initial pencil drawing anddigital rendering, through to the final screen-printing process. Each step hasinvolved many remakes and false starts to get to the point you now see in front ofyou. Screen prints are something that have been around a long time, the process isfinickity and takes ages to get right. But once you’re there you can produce shorteditions of work in characteristic bold colour blocks. Colour is vital in my work, the relationship of one tone to the next being achallenge I strive to perfect all the time. The colour palette for this print serieshas been carefully selected to compliment whilst also leaving space for furtheradditions to the series in the future.
