AT THE STUDIO
Last week there was a visitor to the studio...
Kirstie Allsop came to film for a new show at the Lynsey Jean Henderson Print Studio (where I hire my space from). It was rather surreal to see how these programmes are made. They were filming the lovely print designer Zoe Murphy for a house they are working on in Joppa.
Lynsey has space available a the studio to rent on a monthly basis or to hire use of the equipment daily i.e. a 10 metre print table, massive exposure unit, light box wash bay etc. If you are interested in hiring a space have a look at her BLOG for contact details and more information about the facilities.

WALLPAPER PRINTING
This week I have been getting final samples and lengths of wallpaper ready for the Pittenweem Arts Festival (the deadline for which is drawing ever nearer, eeeeek!)
Here's a few images of the printing process once you have your image onto screen. The images show the designs for 'Baroque Rose' and 'Seaweed Drift'.
