The Flamingo is a 3 colour screen print with a lots of hand colouring. The base layer is a virtually invisible gloss white screen print that's purpose is to pull out little details in the hand colouring. I've used this technique many times before but always thought it would not be possible since I switched from oil based inks to water based inks 6 years ago. The result adds depth to the overall image and compliments the second screen printed layer which is the coloured pattern. The third layer is the black which ties the whole image together. The iridescent gold in the leaves is also hand painted.
3 Colour screenprint, hand coloured with ink on 310gsm Somerset Satin Tub Sized paper.
