Waxflower and Mustard Original Handmade Screen Print by Lisa Stubbs

'Waxflower and mustard' is an original 9 colour screen print, Edition of 30, hand printed on light weight Fabriano paper in Yorkshire using quality acrylic and elbow grease.

"I was inspired by the iconic graphics on this old tin of Colemans mustard powder that I found in an antique shop. My Grandad always had mustard in his lunchtime sandwiches which came from a little tin of Coleman's powder. My Grandma then mixed it up in an egg cup with a drop of water and a tiny wee spoon.

As a kid I would always try a bit on the end of my tongue and then do an Oscar winning performance of how hot and horrid it was!
The tin is small so I put in it some delicate wax flowers from a bouquet I had been given which suited the small tin perfectly.

I love the nostalgia and memories this image conjures up of the kitchens of my childhood.

I hand squeegee each print and carefully make sure each one has a tiny imperfection so it is unique, so every piece is an original hand made print."
