About
A Print-maker based in the UK graduated studying Fine arts for 5 years and specializing in traditional print techniques such as Screen printing and Lino printing and Etching.
I started streaming October 2015 on the odd occasion, but now I try to stream at least once a week. I will play games on stream and also will be streaming design work I do. I hope in the future to be showing screen printing and Lino printing on this channel.
The context of a lot of my work revolves around politics and history in the world but i also do more light-hearted design work as well. A lot of the work will be a slow process of building up to the final product, so dont expect to see results in one stream. Most multi coloured print designs are printed colour/layer by colour/layer so can take a few days.
Please feel free to ask questions about any methods used, I am more than happy to pass on my knowledge of print. I have attached some images of equipment that use for printing at home.
Enjoy
