Printing new albumn T Shirts for Melbourne Band "Sunday chairs"

Love starting the process with colour matching!

The band wanted to explore their audience's needs by offering up some vibrant colours, showcased on quality cotton T shirts. It took me some time to replicate the colours, well worth the effort infact.

Matching from original pantone by eye{the only true way}

Great when my other half isnt around. Only 12 sizes, what chinese laundry??

Original artwork produced in watercolour of a deep purple nature. Very beautiful and fluid. Property of the "sunday chairs". Given to me for readying for screen print design.

The first black print produced.

The light grey/silver print.

"black"

Warhol in style.

"burgundy"

Every colour produced.

A great colourfull process and job, clients were so happy they offered more ongoing work to me.
Always a good sign. All inks used are eco friendly and waterbased to provide a soft finish and asthetic to the 100% cotton garments.
A fine screen mesh was used to illuminate and identify the high detail as the original brief stated and also to adhere to the original artwork produced in watercolour.
Looking forward to working with you again in the near future.

Printing wood for construction of lino cutting /printing V board.

This unique design for a cutting and printing base for lino art blocks was designed by a Terrific print maker David Frazer. He has the design patented and sells it online. A very simple affair when it comes to registering, cutting a lino block and also printing from the one platform. I had been contacted and asked to correct a few glitches with regard to the screen printing on wood.
After spending 2 years in reserch and development for my personal projects in relation to printing on many different substrates including plastic, metals and wood. The corrections were made for davids V boards and the results turned out clean and presise. Happy Days and phew....!

The compleated Product in red.

Us in the studio.Yep my hat is my hair, he is just showing off!

All the best ith the sales Davo.

Old sponge recipe 1967

This latest job was for a client who wanted to present her extended family with a beautiful christmas gift this year. The brief was that she had the original sponge recipe written by her mother in 1967 and she wanted the image cleaned up then transfered to silk screen. Finally the recipe was printed onto 100 % linen T towels in a deep blue ink and given as chistmas gifts to be enjoyed by all recipients.

Original Hand written recipe 1967

The image has been cleaned up and scaled to 70cm *140cm. I also added a simple illustration of four eggs on the top left.

Now presented in a tactile and functional way, the old recipe looks fantastic and the client was so pleased with her 25 T towels.

This project had a nice story behind it and was fun to liase with the daughter of the creater.
