Due to the success of the first print I did for Howler – which I hear is almost sold out already, they have commissioned a second design which I have just finished printing about half an hour ago! Looking really good and getting lots of positive comments from fans of the band… I just need to sleep now! Howler started their tour tonight in Bristol.
Today has been quite a rock and roll kind of day. Howler have started advertising the screen printed posters on their website today and there seems to have been a fair amount of interest which is great.
Have a look just here :

Also today I have had some interest from James to do posters for them for the Wychwood Festival which they are headlining this summer in June. www.wychwoodfestival.com
Seems like a very long time ago now!
Tonight I have done my first run of test prints for Howler’s European tour poster. I am feeling particularly pleased as I managed to perfect screen printing on my own home made print table and didn’t make any mistakes! This also means no more getting up at stupid ‘o clock to get into Oxford and do my screen printing! Now I just need to do the final print run for Howler’s tour and everything will be great!
This is the latest single from Howler “Back of Your Neck’. Their European tour starts in Liverpool on the 23rd.
Tonight I have been setting up my own screen printing studio in my garage. Its all very basic at the moment and I am still working out a few issues with it as you can see from the prints I have done this evening, not perfect yet! Hopefully I will get it sorted out so that I don’t have to get up at 4.45am to go and screen print in Oxford!
I have just opened a shop on Etsy to sell my screen prints. Please do go and have a look. I am planning to add more items as I go. Find me here : http://www.etsy.com/shop/JonMackay
At the moment I am selling the posters below.
