What I’ve been working on this week, in between painting my lions for @prideofyorkshiretrail.

I’m endeavouring to be creative everyday producing collages and now simple stencil woodcut prints.

I’m loving making these prints. Working fairly small (a5size) I find it’s a good way of exploring an idea quickly.

A few action shots and details of my @prideofyorks

A few action shots and details of my @prideofyorkshiretrail lions that I’ve been working on this week.

It’s quite a change to my routine, traveling into town most days and working with others on something, rather than days at home alone in my studio. It’s good fun! Today I’ve been chatting away with @makermrs and @lydialeighart rather distractedly and with that ‘Friday feeling’ as we painted our lions. Still got quite a bit done!

Not even half way through yet but two weeks in. Need to speed up.

Chose one of my fave songs to accompany this post.

I really like this collage made with off cuts of paper from stencil woodcut printing.

Sharing a few collage experiments from the last few days.

I’ve been painting my lion for @prideofyorkshiretrail and then I went on to @cwnn_sheffield so I’ve not had a chance to get collaging.

Back to painting my lion tomorrow than hopefully I’ll have a bit of time after that.

Been doodling a bit with paint and then made a quick collage from one of the painted doodles. Part of my #dailyartchallenge

I do love a floral composition!

For the doodles I used this handy little set ( pic 4) which I’ve had for a good 7 years. They are well used and still going strong!

I received this roller in the post today - see the last pic. I’m excited to try it! It’s super soft at 25 shore and as Durathene rollers seem to have disappeared off the planet, I’m looking forward to trying this when inking up my wood blocks. Which I hope I’ll be doing soon.

Today’s #dailyart collage challenge took me the length of time to catch up with 2 episodes of the archers. Is it a teapot? Is it a strange dancing figure? I don’t know… I’m definitely getting quicker though!

Today has been really enjoyable! After a scary morning of very hazardous black ice causing accidents on our road, I’ve been back at the lion painting space on the Moor in Sheffield, painting for the @prideofyorkshiretrail. Before I got there, I dropped in at @johnstonespaint in Burngreave for tester pots of paint. They were very helpful indeed in the shop and one kind chap even brought my paint out to the car once it was mixed. There’s service!

Hopefully I’ll be back painting again tomorrow, weather permitting!

Sharing an oldie today from my sketchbook because I’ve not had time today to create a new collage.

Inspired by natural forms and the promise of Spring, this is a collage and stamp print.

Today I am beginning my lions as part of @prideofyorkshiretrail. It’s fffffrreeeezing! Luckily there is plenty of hot tea and I’ve brough my hot water bottle. Fingers are holding out at the moment. 😆 I’m here with @jamesgreenprintworks and others…all busy working away near The Light cinema on the Moor.

Another quick collage for day 5. Selecting tomato

Another quick collage for day 5. Selecting tomato reds, ultramarine, turquoise and pink. Lots of semicircles but my favourite shape is the bright turquoise blue in the bottom right which was a remnant of something I’ve cut out previously.

Building up quite a nice collection now!
