Petting Zoo - silkscreen prints from a master of the art...

Down here at Printmaking HQ, we like to give you the nod towards stuff that we find, that we love, and that we hope will provide you good folks with a healthy dose of inspiration, and nothing is more pleasing then than to be able to introduce you to work done by people we know. In this instance, the man Spence, AKA Petting Zoo, is an old and valued chum of ours, as well as being an alumni of this place from some time too long ago now...

 

Petting Zoo is someone we regard as a master when it comes to using 'textural mapping'; importing textural layers often created just using old prints or random artefacts found laying around and a scanner, which he uses to great effect by overlaying, thus allowing other colours to come through.

If you want to follow Petting Zoo - a recommended past-time -  you can find him here… www.easypz.co.uk. 

Take a look and give your eyeballs a treat...
