Details: Limited edition of 15 Signed and numbered on the front Screenprint with graphite powder and ink on 300gsm Somerset Soft White Satin paper with a deckled edge Paper size 38 x 28.5cm, print size 20cm diameter Unframed About: Inspired by a trip to Iceland; the sublime Icelandic winter landscape with expanses of snow and ice glistening under the moon and sunlight. Colours for this reimagined landscape have been drawn from the blue/grey hues of the sky and ice; Wedgewood blue, buff titanium and graphite powder were used to evoke the serene mood of the morning moon as the light changed to sunrise, with the graphite powder being reminiscent of the distinctive Icelandic black sand. Inspiration has also been taken from the Japanese woodblock printmaking art movement known as Shin-hanga (New prints), which merged together Ukiyo-e traditions from the East with European influences. This print was hand pulled by the artist in her Brighton printmaking studio and is the second print in this series that compliment each other when hung together. The other artworks are Moonlight Through The Trees and Midsummer Moon. Technique: This print was created by assembling a digital collage, made up of photographs taken in Iceland and on travels, before being taken into the print studio. The image was printed on a transparency and a mesh screen was coated in a light sensitive emulsion, which was left to dry in a dark room. When dry, the image was exposed onto the screen using UV light, with the black parts of the image blocking out the light, meaning that the emulsion didn’t harden on the darker parts of the image. The screen was then washed to remove any unexposed emulsion, leaving the image on the screen to be printed. Ink and graphite powder were mixed with printing medium and a squeegee was hand pulled to push the ink through the mesh on the areas of the exposed image, onto paper to create the finished screenprint.

Sherrie-Leigh Jones is an Artist and Printmaker based in Brighton, East Sussex. She creates limited edition and original landscape prints inspired by nature and changing seasons, offering the viewer a sense of escapism, a transportation to a new place and a journey through imagined landscapes. The Japanese woodblock printmaking movement known as Shin-hanga (New prints) and Sansuiga (Japan) or Shanshui (China); paintings which depict an idealised landscape using the forms of mountains, rivers, clouds and mist, inspire her prints. Mountainous landscapes and the romantic sublime also influence her work. To create her prints, she assembles collages using her travel photographs and photos taken on walks in the English countryside, which are then combined with paintings and occasionally found imagery. The finished compositions are then taken into the print studio to be exposed on screens and hand pulled as screenprints, resulting in the final artworks. Some prints are also hand printed using the cellulose transfer printing technique. Read more about the techniques used here. Jones exhibits in the UK and internationally, including the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2021. Her work is held in Jeremy Cooper's Collection and private collections in the UK, France, Germany, Taiwan, New York and L.A. In 2020, she was awarded an a-n Bursary: Time Space Money, supported by a-n The Artists Information Company and Arts Council England, and in 2018 was invited to be a part of Woolwich Contemporary Editions. In 2015, Jones was awarded a Print Futures Award and in 2013, her SS13 collaboration with fashion label, To Be Adored (tba), featured on the front cover of Grazia China.
