Hooray! My first lavender bag is made and I only had to unpick it once!

Sat listening to a play on Radio 4 and quilting my woodcut printed linen.

Very pleasant.

New reading glasses!

I was down to one pair that I kept loosing or have broken, so I’ve ordered a few more pairs. I’m loving these purple frames!

I need them for everything now...especially for the new textile pieces I’m working on. I’m going to begin quilting them this week. You can see them hanging up behind me.

Thanks for liking and sharing recently. I’ll be honest and say I’ve had a bit of a wobble of late and suddenly felt a bit lost after managing to keep my head straight and fairly focused since new year. I’m now feeling more on track after my day of collage and printing in my studio. Hope you are doing ok too.

Well I got my mojo back this afternoon with a bit of a play with some random cut out bits of paper.
This has led to a bit of mono printing...we shall see where it goes.
It’s just nice to be creative in my studio again after a longer break than I had planned.
While cutting and arranging i was listening to the #adambuxtonpodcast talking to Roisin Murphy, which was very entertaining.

I’ve been out for a walk on this rather grey and brown day. You can see where I’ve been in my stories if you like. 😁.

Now I’m back home and surveying my tidy studio and more or less clear table and contemplating getting my creative head on...
I’ve chosen a few images of last year from literally hundreds of collages and prints, that I’d like to develop a bit further.

Time to get collaging I think....

I’m planning on having a massive declutter in my studio today. I’m possibly being rather optimistic as it is bursting at the seams with stuff that’s meant to be stored in the cellar. As we are about to get our cellar renovated, I can’t really put the stuff on there. At the moment I feel like I am spending time moving things that don’t have a proper home from one room to another all the time.

It will all be worth it in the end though and I know a lot of the stuff in my studio just needs to go to the local recycling centre. I find it hard to part with things that just might one day come in useful!

Anyway, here is a flashback to a year or so ago when my studio was last tidied properly!

Anyone else gave trouble throwing ‘useful’ things out?

I’ve been having a play with some fabric printing this afternoon. I’m creating some examples using a range of different techniques. As usual I’m getting carried away building up the layers.
If you’d like to give this a try I’m teaching these techniques on an online textile printing workshop in March 14th.
You can find out more via the link in my bio.

Happy Friday folks!

I can’t believe it’s half term next week! Have you got any plans for what you are going to do?

I’m still up a ladder painting today and hoping to finish by 3pm! I caught a sight of this colourful group on my mantle piece as I passed by and I thought I’d share it. You can find all of these pieces in my Etsy shop. 😀

Have a nice weekend, whatever you do!

Hi! How are you?
I thought I’d pop on here and say thanks for following me and supporting me recently. I work as a full time printmaker, mostly wood and linocut printing with a bit of screen printing and other simple techniques too. At the moment as for many of us, my time is interspersed with quite a bit of home schooling. This is mostly in the form of moral support and encouragement, I’m lucky that my 12 year old is learning independently most of the time.

As well as the hone schooling, I’m am currently in the thick of decluttering ( which has barely begun) and redecorating bits of the house. My home studio is chaotic and will be like this for a little while yet unfortunately. I’m looking forward to getting back to creating in there again. I’ll have to get it sorted soon anyway, as I have some Zoom workshops coming up in the next few weeks. I really enjoyed my first zoom class this year a couple of weeks ago and I have a few spaces left on my ‘pattern and printing on textiles’ workshop coming soon ( there is a link on my linktree in my bio if you’d like more info).

I’m really looking forward to returning to textile pieces I’ve been working on this year. I usually buy end of the line fabrics from my local fabric shop @finefabricssheffield but they are currently closed and so I hanging on ‘til they open again. This is partly why I’ve decided to get much needed work around the house done instead.
I’m pleased with the first quilted textile piece I made though. 😀

I’ve added a few photos of a selection of my work. Much is available in my Etsy shop and you can see more on my website too.

Right, I’m off to parcel up some orders and then back up the ladder to paint. 😁

I have had so much lovely feedback following my online workshop last Monday. ☺️
So, I have posted my next Zoom workshop on my website, which is a day workshop exploring printing on textiles. There is a link in my bio.
