About The Artwork

Original hand pulled 6 colour screen print from a limited edition of 50, printed on Heritage White 315 gsm paper. The Ten Bells pub near Spitalfields market is one of the Truman Brewery's oldest pubs, welcoming drinkers since 1666 into its lively beautifully decorated pub. There has been a pub close to the current location of the Ten Bells since the mid-18th century. The name of the pub has changed over time, but those names have generally derived from the number of bells in the peal housed in the Nicholas Hawksmoor designed Christ Church, Spitalfields next door. In the 1750s, the pub was called the Eight Bells Alehouse and became the Ten Bells when Christ Church added two more bells to its peals. It did change its name again, however, in the 1970s, when it became the Jack the Ripper and turned into a gruesome kind of theme pub. The campaign group, Reclaim the Night, persuaded the brewery to drop this name in the 1980s on the basis that the pub’s name should not commemorate the murder of women. A renovation in 2010 added a new mural which celebrates modern Spitalfields and includes local characters such as the artists, Gilbert and George. Signed and numbered on the front at the bottom. Orders are carefully wrapped, rolled into a strong tube and despatched by Royal Mail Special next day delivery signed and tracked within three days, usually quicker. Overseas orders are rolled into a strong tube and sent by courier.

I am a screen printer and artist, currently living in London. I love to travel around the world, exploring unusual places and cultures. I create series of multi-layered screen prints, working from my own photographs and drawings. My recent travels to Japan have inspired this series of prints. I was drawn to the tranquility of the temples and the carefully curated landscapes surrounding them. Using numerous layers of screen printing, I have built up a painterly image to convey the stillness and beauty. Gold leaf has then been applied to the prints, as it is applied to the temples themselves, to purify and protect them from negativity. An elected member of the Southbank Printmakers Gallery. I also organise North London Printmakers and curate several stands at the Affordable Art Fair. I have work in the Victoria and Albert museum archives and have collectors around the world.
