A simple but well designed two colour screen print. The layered style creates quite a busy image, but the different colours don’t make it difficult to look at.

I really like the textured background and wonder whether this was intentional or could have been a mistake during the print process.

I think the positioning and shape of the hands really draw you into the face and then subtly point you down to the logo below as they form a downwards arrow shape.

I spotted this beautiful screenprint via Behance. What struck me was the effect the use of angles had on guiding the eye around the design. It appears the grid works both vertically, horizontally and at a 45 degree angle. Keeping to this grid creates a consistent feel throughout the design and also forces the eye to snake down the design.

The colour palette is limited but powerful. The intense orange and green literally jump out from the greyscale background. It also creates a layered feel which links nicely to the layered element of screen printing.
