The process begins with Young printing the colours onto a single sheet of A5 watercolour paper with an ordinary inkjet printer, each colour taking up a quarter of the sheet. “This limits the amount of material I use and makes sure that I keep each piece to roughly the same size. I usually have a rough idea of what I’m going to make before I start, and the clearer that idea is, the better it comes out. I might do a small sketch of the final shape I want in advance, but often I just start drawing straight onto the printed paper and make it up as I go along.”
