Many of my wooden pieces are unique due to the mono-print technique. I cut patterns from lino and print from those or I roll ink onto the ‘waste’ plywood after the shapes have been cut out, which makes for some interesting designs. Working intuitively, I overlay patterns and colours until I like what I see. I love that it’s such a very playful process. All the wooden pieces are sealed with Renaissance wax to protect them.
