I was very pleased to be working with James Marriot on a screen print for the fundraiser as it gave us a chance to merge our two illustrative styles and to work alongside one another as practicing, professional illustrators. We designed an elaborate screen print where we needed four separate screens and were using six different colours. Everything was planned out to go ahead but due to problems in the print room, we were held back most of the day and when it came to getting each layer onto it's screen, it was too late in the day. From there we decided to call it a day on our print dream and to save that idea for our own time.

I still had the chance to have one screen exposed for the following day so I used this meerkat I had produced previously. I am really happy with this drawing and think it will look great as a screen print. I am really excited about experimenting with different colours when printing this image.
