Harlequin Wallpaper

To complete my interior design range, I felt that it needed a coordinating wallpaper. The design for this was taken from my ties cushion, which I photographed, cropped and edited to separate the colours into layers. These were then printed onto acetate ready for screen printing. I chose to print one panel of wallpaper, 50cm by 250cm, with 11 colours and 2 or 3 layers of colour per diamond section. As screen printing is one of my preferred areas of art this was very enjoyable to do but it took me about 40 hours.
Below are photos of the process of screen printing my wallpaper panel.
