pochoir print

I’ve been working on a new print for our wood + paper + box project (un)fold - it’s a little postcard-sized print called secret garden.

I started with a quick sketch and tried out some samples of pochoir technique and cut outs…

This is the stencil I cut and used to make the print. I used 2 greens and a pink, in layers to create a bit of density in the colour, on a creamy washi paper.

This is the edition drying, and then finished with all the shapes cut out with a scalpel, and fold lines added.

It is one of 6 prints for the (un)fold box. More prints on the blog as they’re completed!
