Small previews of two out of four screen prints that arrived in my studio today. Beautifully done, beautifully big by @16TonnePress . I’m so happy with how my small lines scaled up. I was so nervous about it !

It plays with queer gender and sexuality, using translations of Michelangelo's sonnets (by people I made up) as a starting point.

We were able to work with the organisers of tomorrow’s Bristol Black Lives Matter protest to provide free riso printing - we’re talking with paper suppliers to try and arrange stock donations so that we can continue to offer ongoing free print services wherever they are needed.
