‘Nouveau Cat’ screen print by Fran Wood Design

Scandi Bird and Flower Screen Print by Fran Wood Design I originally designed this image for a tea towel and greeting card, but recently transferred it to a silkscreen and printed it onto A3 size paper.

I love this 1950s book cover by Alice and Martin Provenson.

‘Scandi Bird’ Greeting Card Another photo from my friends flat in Cologne. This is one of the first screen printed cards I did. Influenced by Scandinavian and mid century design.

Nouveau Bird Screen Print - Retro 70s I went to visit my friend in Cologne a couple of weeks ago and she had some of my hand screen printed greeting cards on display in her flat. This is one called Nouveau Bird. I enjoyed using a gradient instead of flat colour - it makes each card an individual, as each time you print, the gradient changes.
