Winter Landscape








Here's one for the winter season, I've been working on introducing colour to my linocuts recently, there's not loads in this one I know but it is winter, come on! This is a two block print, matching them up was a pain in the ass but I managed it in the end. I can see the finer points of using reduction printing now.

Work in Development part 2







I've been working on a new project recently illustrating some of my favourite poems, my recent one has been about E. E. Cumming's "it is moments after I have dreamed". Here are a few progress pictures for you, just trying to get the atmosphere right. Hopefully have a Linocut done in a day or so and then I'll start work on John Keats "Ode to a Nightingale" cos you cant go wrong with a few of the classics.

Work in development part 1


Linocuts on the way - portraits on two of my favourite female authors, Angela Carter (left) and Margaret Atwood (right). I'll print these some time over the next month when I have more lino's to print at the studio. Can't wait till I have a printing press of my own.
