ARTIST - ian scaiffe

I thought I would do something a bit different today and look for inspiration in fine art. These colourful geometric pieces are by Ian Scaife who studied fine art at the Liverpool College of Art and at Goldsmiths in London. His work is created using  screenprinting with the designs cut by scalpel from paper stencils. Because Ian uses newspaper he can often only create 5-10 editions before the ink moistens the stencil and breaks it down. Here are some of my favourites chosen for simplicity of shape and combinations of colour.
