Notes

Shown RCA Degree Show 1980; Gallery 52, 1981; 'OzPop' AGWA,1992. "This print is about POST impressionism on many levels. Again it refers to registration spots, stamps and the post office, as well as being in commentary on the techniques of Post impressionism where the red, yellow and blue spots reference the optic colour mixing of the impressionists and people like Seurat. The images on the print are borrowed from Seurat. Both stamp sheets were brought home to Perth where I found an old fashioned guillotine that had a perforating comb for making ticket book perforations".
