Etcha Sketcha - Original Artwork

Etcha Sketcha — Original Artwork

If it's fun, I want some. It's not just a line of text blazing across the bottom of this piece — it's a manifesto. A declaration. The entire reason this work exists.

After years of pushing screen printing toward a state of technical perfection, I hit a wall. The work was flawless. Clean. Precise. And completely dead. It looked like something a computer had spat out, not something a human had made with their hands and their gut. So I stopped. I walked away from the sanitised precision of the digital process and chose to embrace what I now call the beauty of the mess.

What you're looking at is the result of that radical shift. A riot of fluorescent hot pink, teal, yellow and blue — explosive, layered, alive. Handmade positives. Raw physical intuition. No safety net. The flowers that dominate the composition are my constant — a single aesthetic thread running through the chaos, grounding the energy without taming it. Look closely and you can feel the layers colliding, the ink making its own decisions, the hand-pulled line doing exactly what a hand-pulled line should do: something a machine never could.

The left edge tears open into a frenzy of colour — greens, reds, fragments of previous pulls bleeding through. That's not accident, that's honesty. That's the studio speaking. The bold, graphic flowers rise out of it with a kind of joyful defiance, their white petals ringed in yellow haloes, their dark teal forms stacked and layered with a density that rewards every second you spend in front of it.

This is original artwork, 2026. There is no edition. There is no other one. It is presented in a handmade float mount oak cladded frame — salvaged, tactile, material history built right into the piece. The frame alone is an object worth owning. Together they are something else entirely.

Size: 695 x 955mm, 70mm depth. This is a large, commanding, room-defining work. It arrives signed on the front and the back, and comes with a certificate of authenticity.

This is not a series made for the market. It's a series made because making it felt like rediscovering childhood — that pure, uncomplicated joy of reacting to ink on paper with no agenda other than the work itself. A master-level exploration of being present. Of refusing the boxes and labels. Of being a Jack of all trades and proud of every single one.

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.
