About Early Griffin Press
'We set up Early Griffin as a project to enable us to indulge our love for the hand made quality and process involved in screen printing and the desire to work with artists we admire.'

'We work closely with invited artists to produce a series of screen prints in limited editions of 50, with 3 artists in each series. Each print is editioned by us by hand and individually approved by the artist. We hope we can work with artists at all stages of their career and from all corners of the globe.'

Early Griffin donates 10% of the profits of each edition to a charity of the artist's choice.

About Rachel Cattle
Rachel's drawing of an axe is so beautifully simple and yet so open to interpretation. Rachel's print is one colour, the ink lovingly mixed to be as close to graphite possible.

"The drawings I make of places, objects and people attempt to somehow explain emotional states or a feeling. An inanimate object or an animal will often become utterly representative of something I feel. A place, story, image from a picture book, photograph, remembered scene from a film or specific place I remember from my childhood will seem to sum up an emotion.

The act of drawing is as integral as the subject matter and drawing with graphite pencil is the most direct and natural way for me to work. I also like the association of graphite pencil with childhood/teenage drawing. I often draw at night, to music and use songs and their associations with memory as a background to my drawings and as the soundtracks to the films I make in collaboration with Steve Richards".

Rachel has chosen Amnesty International as her favoured charity.
