Three in One, 1976

This art print shows how one could adapt an old, larger living space into three functional areas. The original image comes from the 'Ideal Homes' magazine of July 1946; the month my parents married in Nottingham and would have set up their house together. I produced this work thirty years later and offered them a copy from the series as an anniversary present.

​For a while, a number of friends, colleagues and individuals responding sympathetically to the idea of living in a property converted from its original design concept, chose to acquire copies of this very domestic setting for themselves; consequently this print series enjoyed some degree of sales success. However, when I stopped working as an artist in the late 1970s, I chose to store the prints away safely in one of my plan chests. As this image really does seem to express what was then considered to be a desirable image of domestic comfort and, having recently aligned myself with Artlimes, it seemed propitious to once again offer the remaining signed prints for sale .

The image shows the Artist's proof framed behind glass; there are still a number of signed prints available unframed, which will be posted in a robust cardboard tube.
