at last! here is the result of 3 months toil at the printmakers. I've been wanting to print this for over 3 years and it feels really great to have it done. all in all there were 34 layers to print separately and 32 colours to get juuuuuuuust right. I started working on 100 sheets of paper with the fear I'd end up with an edition of 5 or something but actually it went surprisingly well and despite my over-critical eye I managed to get a final cut of 75.

I'm selling them over at my new shop for £165 +p&p. please note I'm waiting for a delivery of extra wide tubes so there may be a slight delay posting any orders received the next few days. all other prints can still be found on Etsy.

slowly slowly...



catchy monkey.

11 down...




23 to go...

forecast...



I am most definitely making things in shade these days but I promise to be nice and sunny if you visit me on Saturday at the Summertime Hop... I'll be there with the fine company of Lizzy Stewart selling a selection of prints and cards including a new small print of Congeries in green for just £8! and for those who won't be able to make it to the fair it will be in my shop at that price until Sunday evening.

hear yee!

exciting news is that I recently joined Edinburgh Printmakers and have my first session there on Fri. I haven't printed since I left school nearly 2 years ago - after so long out, I'm filled with a little trepidation, but mostly I am really looking forward to getting back to it! first off I am printing Mr. Lion, of badge fame...



then I'm planning to do a screenprint of the Congeries in ALL the colours. I forget how many there are, around 30 I think. which is quite a lot for a screenprint. from today it is also available as a limited edition digital print from Pulptree.com
