Gorgeous! Love this. Yes, nice in the way the body transitions between air and water, and how you showed form of the person and the waves. Always nice to see swimmers!

This is a photo of a greeting card lying on a wooden table with some wildflowers. The subject is a song bird in some apple blossom and is reproduced from my 4 colour linocut. It has a positive and pretty springtime feel.

The wind has dropped today and there's a more gentle, spring time feel to the day (so far!) #shopindie #linocut #springtime

A number of years ago I made a silly linocut print 'Lino Richie' and honestly thought that I'd sold them all.

Nope, I found FOUR languishing in a box last night!

- Hand printed
- A4 size
- Signed
- Literally only 4 of these so be quick

Shop: etsy.me/4bmJ8xb

Hi all
First full proof of my latest print. Something a little different, single colour and a slightly different style to my usual animal prints.
It may become a multi block.
Happy printing!

The title page of Slippery Creatures by KJ Charles, with my ex libris stamped on it in black. It's a linocut of a very rotund and gormless cartoony pigeon sitting on a pile of books. The spines of the book say "ex libris CK"

Aw thank you so much! I love pigeons too, they're such great wee creatures. I made a linocut stamp of a pigeon for my ex libris!

Figure model is especially lively because 1) catnip mouse 2) spring weather 3) an alpha cat from the household is away right now. But I managed to catch her this way.

Cool! Hope you will -- I'd like to see it. So far, if I sketch or draw *anything, that counts. Aiming for before noon, so I won't put it off. It's movement drawing practice. Plus, so far I am able to draw the cat. And it's relaxing; mental-health benefit. :)

Figure model cat Amy is back from slipping past me at the door this morning. Outside is sodden after a heavy rain, so she is happier indoors.

Whether it's the first sunshine of March, or early spring showers, we all love to talk about the weather. β˜”β˜€οΈ

In the brand new addition to the 'A Philosopher Looks at...' series, Benjamin Hale explores what weather is, how it behaves, and how we will forever be learning to live alongside it.

Amy the cat sprawled on a chair. She went outside earlier and apparently decided it is too muggy (with good reason here in sunny Swamplandia); is now relaxing.
