JOY IN MESS

I find workbenches become so beautiful over time. But periodically I need new ones.

For this series I laid tape and stencils over a freshly painted sheet of wood, and used it as a desk for many months. I’ve started cutting it up and peeling back the stencils to reveal the lettering, and then finishing with some hand-painting to make these one-off signs

• Each piece is a one-off
• Created with a combination of tape and freehand painting
• 16 x 26cm
• 18mm MDF – there are many cut-marks on the back of this piece
• Mirror-plate fixings attached to the back for wall mounting
• Indoor only
