Harbour Arm, low tide
£180Edition of 35
Seven layers, printed over three days. The grey took four attempts to mix and I still repull it every time.
Open studio, first Saturday
Prints pulled by hand, in editions small enough to matter
Screenprints and monotypes made by hand in a Margate studio. Small editions, open studio on the first Saturday of the month.
Editions of forty or fewer. Signed, numbered, shipped worldwide.
Editions
What is available now
Sizes and papers are listed on each print. When an edition sells out it stays sold out.
Shell Grotto series
£240Edition of 24
Nine layers on a black ground. The hardest registration I have attempted and eleven sheets went in the bin.
Wintergreens
£420Monotype, unique
One impression, no edition. Whatever came off the plate is the entire run and this is it.
Six Chimneys
£150Edition of 40
The first print I made in this studio and still the one people ask for. Reprinted twice, never enlarged.
What I make
Printed by hand, one press, no reproductions
Screenprints
Four to nine layers, hand-pulled on 300gsm Somerset. Registration done by eye, which is why no two match exactly.
Monotypes
One impression only, no edition. What comes off the plate is the whole run.
Commissions
A place, usually. Bring me a photograph and a story and I will send you a proof before printing.
Workshops
Six people, one press, one day. You leave with three prints and inky hands.
Framing
Oak or painted, museum glass, done locally. Cheaper than doing it yourself afterwards.
Open studio
First Saturday of the month. Come and watch a print get pulled and buy nothing at all.

Why people pick us
The bits that go wrong on a build, written down before we start
Editions stay closed
Forty means forty. No larger version later, no reprint in another colourway, no seconds.
The misprints go in the bin
If the registration is off it does not get sold cheap. It gets recycled.
A proof before a commission prints
You see it and say yes before I pull the edition. If you say no, you owe me nothing.
Printed by hand, entirely
One press, one person, no giclée reproductions dressed up as prints.
Reviews
What customers said afterwards
I asked whether a larger version existed and was told no, and that there would not be one, because the edition was the edition. I bought two.
Six of us, one press, a whole day. I have never been so absorbed in anything. Went home with three prints and a new hobby I cannot afford.
Sent a photograph of my grandmother's house. The proof came back and I cried, which I was not expecting from a piece of paper.

Get in touch
Commission, workshop or a question
For a commission, send a photograph and roughly what it means to you. I will come back with a price and a proof before anything prints.
