Ah thanks so much for sharing! Great to see you 😄❤️

Monotype of pink irises in tall grass. Semi abstract and gestural looking.

More flower inspired painterly additive monotypes. Mainly pink and green with a bit of blue.

Monoprint with paper stencils and additive monotype. Pink, purple, green and blue are the colours.

#printpromotmonday #process ... I did these monotypes today... Every mark, shape and colour informs the next. They're all *process* led. Inspired by the Irises out at the moment. Thanks to @printsbythebay.bsky.social @strangford.co @gemmatrickey.bsky.social for flying the #printpromptmonday flag 🌟

My sub for #printpromptmonday theme of #water is The Flood.

For those unfamiliar with the Somerset landscape, Glastonbury Tor is an iconic historic feature surrounded by the Somerset Levels that flood yearly. Not to this extent though - a glimpse of a hellish future or of the distant past?

For #printpromptMonday I bring this #stopmotion animation from a few years back..
Todays theme #water

#prinmtaking #gravura #grabado #inkonpaper #fish #hechoamano

An A4 block print in black ink of a curving, stone sea wall going out to sea. Waves crash upon the stone and a dramatic, streaky, cloudy sky is above.

It's that time again: #PrintPromptMonday and for this week's theme of #Water here is 'The Cobb' - made for my parents for Christmas. They spend a lot of time down at Lyme Regis and we've got many happy memories now of walking along The Cobb as a family. #Printmakers #ArtSky #BlueSkyArt

Painted linocut of an otter at a river.

Here is Along the River for #printpromptmonday #water Water is one of my favorite things to carve! I bet at least half of my linocuts have a river, creek or pond in them. 🌊
