Inspired by my 2006 association with Curwen Print Studio in Cambridge, UK, I embarked on a change of style with this body of work, complementing the photographic with the hand drawn. These hand drawn, hand printed lithographs on photo plate play with the royal colours of purple and gold as well as the historic colonial symbols of the lion, serpent and the dragon. Through the use of symbols and British pub titles, this work not only attempts to challenge my style of mark making but connect with both my French and British heritage
