Artwork description:

After a week or so of the very strict lockdown here in Spain, I began to go into something of a creative ‘freeze’ as my mind decided to go into lockdown too! After a few zombie-like days, I shook myself up and began working on some imagined head and shoulder drawings, going wherever my isolated mind took me. These led on to making monotypes which I have developed into silkscreen prints under the umbrella title ‘All Dolled Up With Nowhere To Go’ with this print being ‘The Pinstripe Suit’. Here is a shabby and dishevelled city worker. His pinstripe work uniform is fraying and moth eaten - an indication that it has been mothballed, much like its occupant.

Materials used:

water based acrylic ink on a heavyweight handmade paper
