The Pink Set Screen Print - By Anna Walsh

Get in the pink with this unique and beautiful limited edition screen print celebrating pink winged birds and beasts of the natural world – now you can be a flamingo in a sea of pigeons (well, other pink creatures)!

The vibrant pink hues in this limited edition screen print evoke a sense of joy and playfulness, instantly transforming any room into a haven of pink power! The illustrations are from original hand drawings by Anna, which are then transformed into a playful and pleasing composition.

This piece explores classification and order of nature and animals by humans. Although the style of drawing and addition of text alludes to traditional natural history illustrations, the categorising (pink winged animals) and composition of the animals is created in a less formal manner, making a more unusual visual form. 

Some of the creatures include are: a flamingo, scarlet ibis, roseate spoonbill, elephant hawk moth, Major Mitchel’s cockatoo (recently renamed the pink cockatoo), galah, pine grosbeak, Himalayan white browed rose finch, and more.

The title refers to the fashion world and its frivolous methods of having things in fashion one minute discarded the next. The pink beasts remind us where much of our creative inspiration comes; we should cherish and protect the natural world for future generations.

This print is hand screen printed with 5 different colours, each colour is printed separately on a new layer, which is why the price is higher than a single colour screen print, as it is much more labour intensive.
