In your opinion which medium do you consider is the easiest and which is the toughest to work in and why?
(more questions)
Well photography’s pretty difficult but that’s because I don't know
how to do it..... Of the mediums I use, screen printing is the easiest as it means
that you have to have an image planned out already, then you can just switch off
and print away.....The only thing you can really change once you start is the
colours, and even then if something’s not working its not going to make
an awful difference if its blue or red. I think the most difficult medium to work
in is to work totally digitally, (something I never do!) because then it’s
possible to do anything and you have no real constraints to work against, and
I think that takes away the fun.
