I spend the majority of my time drawing not only for clients but for my own personal fun and experiments as well.
Constantly creating new that is personal and everlasting with a salient feature is important to me, that is what drawing by hand makes possible in my case. All my illustrations are drawn by hand using my tools above: pencils, brushes, and fine-line markers.
A couple of years ago, a deep interest in printing reared my head so I started getting into screen printing as well as learning about different techniques and inks. After years of working with prints and making my own textile merch, I have found that screen printing with discharge ink complements my style the most. These dyes work by colour reversal, the original colour of the T-shirt (coloured fabric) is etched off and the pigment of the printing ink provides the colour instead. It dispenses a silky, soft result. The dye is almost imperceptible. Hence the reason for my dark/black wearables. Equally, almost exclusively all my prints available in the store are also made with screen printing technique.
Next to art, I am highly keen on all materials used for the projects. The T-shirts I use are vegan, eco-, and earth-friendly, which means they are organic and ethically made but crucially manufactured with sustainable energy generated from wind and solar power. I choose to work with these materials due to their impeccable quality, comfortable and nicely fit look as well as their low negative impact on climate change.
The same mindset and conditions apply to all projects I make for my clients too. Just like when tattooing, illustrational art projects are about meeting clients’ needs individually and bringing their ideas come to life in a distinctive way.
