Corrine - Hand Painted Collage / Screenprint (Different Variants)

Corrine no.1 is a joyful collision of vintage ephemera and contemporary screenprint craft. Held in two hands, this original work splits its composition down the middle. On the left, a graphic starburst motif radiates in hot pink and coral orange against a sunshine yellow ground, layered over olive and mustard geometric rays. Below it, white daisies rise from a vase rendered in emerald and teal, their petals catching the light. On the right, a young woman with dark curly hair stands confidently in a teal striped dress, her figure pulled from what feels like a 1950s children's book illustration. Her pink skin tones and the cream backdrop behind her create a warm counterpoint to the electric decorative elements beside her.

The composition breathes with colour. Golden yellows, hot pinks, deep teals, lime greens, purples, and oranges stack and overlap across the picture plane. Geometric blocks of transparent and opaque inks create depth and vibrancy. You can see the hand in this — brushwork, collage edges, the way painted elements sit alongside pulled screenprint layers.

This is a hand-painted collage combined with screenprint, which makes it an original. The "no.1" in the title tells you this is the first iteration, a unique piece that blends found vintage imagery with Fowler's signature layering technique. Multiple screens have been pulled here — at least six or seven passes to build up those overlapping colour fields and graphic elements. Transparent inks allow underlayers to glow through, while opaque passes anchor the composition with solid blocks of saturated colour.

Printed on heavyweight archival paper stock, the surface holds the ink with a slight tooth, giving each layer texture and presence. Registration is deliberately loose in places, letting colours drift and interact organically. This is hand-pulled craft, not digital precision.

The mood is pure mid-century optimism — think 1960s children's annuals, vintage fabric design, and British illustration heritage filtered through a contemporary lens. There's nostalgia here, but it's warm and knowing, not sentimental. Fowler draws from the visual language of post-war British graphic design, when colour was bold and illustration was playful.

Who is this print for? Collectors who understand that hand-pulled means unrepeatable. Once it's gone, it's gone. Own a piece of British screenprint craft.
