The Painted House


Last year i saw a product on Pinterest that really caught my attention. The Painted House produce patterned paint rollers that can be used to create your own patterned surfaces, paper, walls, fabric, what a great idea! I was thrilled to be approached by Clare from the Painted House, who asked if we could work together to produce a roller using one of my designs. Clearly seeing the link between block printing and the effect of the rollers, Clare has been passionate about working with printmakers and designers to produce a series of unique designs for the rollers. So here it is the final product! My "Flock" design is now available on The Painted House website, with more information on application information and inspiration for use. http://the-painted-house.co.uk/






Some of you may recognise the design from the original linocut print.
