Herringbone




Since I have been researching and using Roman artefacts for inspiration this herringbone floor pattern has been a continuing theme in some of my work. I have also been doing some bookbinding and made this small pamphlet book above and hand screen printed the cover in a blue/turquoise colour.  I hand stitched the booklet in order to use as a sketchbook or notebook, and the pages inside are made from beautiful Zerkall paper.  After finishing the pamphlet book I decided to hand screen print my design in copper and made another pamphlet book:




I have also printed my design onto linen and made a small storage container which is very handy to keep all sorts of small items in the studio and home:
