Follow Friday: Refael Idan Suissa

12 March 2021

This week's Follow Friday artist is Refael Idan Suissa, also known as @irefaels. He is a tattoo artist who is better known for his digital art. His digitally created prints resembles imperfectly handprinted linocut prints. His style is a nostalgic swirl of graphic novels and tarot cards.

Screen printing with screen filler and drawing fluid

18 January 2021

I love using screen filler and drawing fluid for screen printing as it is relatively straightforward compared to the photo emulsion and results in a more organic looking print. There will be imperfections, but that is part of the charm.

Drypoint etching on plastic packaging

24 May 2020

During this lockdown period, some art supplies have inevitably gone out of stock. It seems appropriate at this time to try out drypoint etching on various materials commonly found in household waste. I have tried etching on tetrapak, and now my latest experiment is on plastic sheet cut out from ham packaging.

Art in the time of Coronavirus

29 April 2020

It has been 47 days since we started self isolation due to a persistent cough and fever. We never managed to end the isolation as the country went into national lockdown just as we were approaching the end of our quarantine period. Like many, I experienced shock and anxiety in the beginning, and had my fair share of teary outbursts and hiding in car for solace.

Painting with a Guerrilla Painter pochade box

05 January 2020

Like any easily influenced fan, I was seduced by Lena Rivo's plein air videos, and splurged on the rather expensive Guerrilla Painter 9x12 inch pochade box in an attempt to paint like her. The weather here in the UK is nothing like Portugal, especially now in winter. So I compromised and painted in the shelter of our garage instead.
