Print sale !!!!Print sale !!!!!!!Print sale !!!!!!

I had a massive clear out of my drawers (snigger) at the print studio the other day and i found endless experiments,slightly imperfect prints and quite frankly prints i don t like.I m going to do my best to photograph them bit by bit and then put them up for grabs.Bargains galore.And i shall call it my HolidayCocktailFund.

Photo shoot amateurism

 


I attempted to take some "life style "photography of a few of my prints but failed miserably.Camera not good enough,reflections everywhere,real live cat prop, (Hilary) , kept jumping off chair,colours all wrong and print too far away.

                                                          Even photoshop didn t help.

                               It was a shame because i spent half an hour scrubbing the wall clean.
                                                         Call in the professionals i say.
