My current favourite way of working. Completely in

My current favourite way of working. Completely intuitive and absorbing and involving a great deal of chance, happy accident, luck, whatever you want to call it.

Sprinkled with a little bit of Sam Groom magic too of course! ✨

Two studio views today. Printmaking using blocks

Two studio views today.

Printmaking using blocks of wood and paper stencils. Endless possibilities.

‘Make it up as we go along’ as it says in the song

‘Make it up as we go along’ as it says in the song. Sounds about right to me.

After having a clean out of my plan chest, I came upon this half finished textile work made up of sections of hand printed fabric which I’d arranged and sewn together and then undecided on what to do next, left in the drawer.

So, I got out a load of other swatches of printed fabric had a bit of a play with different arrangements and just continued where I’d left off.

It’s keeping my mind occupied while I think of my girl sitting two exams today, while she’s feeling quite poorly.

Remembering when I was trying out the first ideas

Remembering when I was trying out the first ideas for my commission with @sheffhospitalcharity for the adult acute mental health ward.

I’m very keen to begin more woodcuts soon. I love those first stages when there are so many possibilities!

A recent enquiry about block printing on old cloth

A recent enquiry about block printing on old clothes, inspired me to print some designs onto an old blue top that I’d managed to get a stain on, right in the front and centre of it. I’m really pleased with the results. I kept the colours very monochromatic as I felt that would work best with the blue. But I have a white top I’m tempted to try something a bit brighter on next!!

The two techniques I’m using here are the exact ones I’m sharing in my next workshop here in Sheffield. Although we’ll be designing prints for bags and tea towels there’s absolutely no reason why you can’t bring an old item of clothing along as well (cotton or linen would be best) to print onto.

Studio slowly being returned to a working space after two full weekends of @openupsheffield.

Thank you to the people who came to visit me. I really appreciated the fact you picked me from such a fantastic selection of artists who were opening their studios. Also, many thanks to those who made a purchase too. I can’t tell you how wonderful it feels to know my work has brought you joy.

Met some lovely folk over the 5 days and the conversations have inspired me to get a new workshop on my website. Which I’ll tag on here.
Hint* if you sign up for my mailing list I’ll send you a discount code, valid until Sunday. 😊 evening.

It’s the very last day of @openupsheffield today.

Come to the Hillsborough neighbourhood where there is plenty of creativity happening including @the.drawing.shop @rivelinco @trevorfearnleysculpture @phil_alderson_illustration @karencupola and of course me too!

Come and say hi! 👋

It turns out today is #worldcollageday so I’m sharing a few collages I can see around me in my studio at the moment.

I love making collages. It’s my way of drawing as I’m not that interested in using a pencil. I like to start with shapes and colours and see where they take me.

I use the prints I’ve created that for whatever reason don’t quite work. It’s a great bit of recycling and sometimes the collages inspire new ideas for prints. So it’s definitely a cyclical process.

I’m opening up my studio this weekend for the second week of @openupsheffield.

Last weekend it was so nice to see visitors and chat about print and art in general, along with all the other random conversations that are so much a part of this wonderful open studio event.

It’s been an exciting week since then with the preview evening for the @prideofyorkshiretrail lions which were all displayed together at Sheffield Arena. I was so chuffed to be amongst so many fabulous artists selected for this.

Also this week my gorgeous girl had her very last day of school ever before, she begins her A level exams which start next week. So much pressure but I wish all the young people best of luck with their exams and to say if they don’t go as you hope don’t worry too much. Life has a way of working out, whatever.

I’ve been running workshops for many years.

Here are some memories of some of the textile printing ones I’ve done in the past. I love sharing the magic of printmaking, the joyful moment when the print is revealed is just the best!

If you’d like to try textile printing I have a block and stamp printing workshop coming in June.
For more info there’s a link in my bio and on this post! 🩷
