Hear me out, instead of #sponcon we start #spawncon and it’s just pictures of all the salamander and frog eggs/babies you find

Absolutely beautiful texture!

Love that texture!

Beautiful and just the right touch of mysterious!

Thanks! Def my favorite too

Fabric?! I’ve been sewing garments steadily for five years now and have gotten to the point where I want to design my own fabric. I figured I might as well make it available to you too so stay tuned! Here are a few colorways I’m pondering for an oak inspired pattern. #fabric #surfacedesign #sewing

A coil bound notebook in off white with folk art designs of stars, fish, birds, and tulips in bright red and green

It’s that time again! For #printpromptmonday this week the theme is “flipped” and I’m adding this two color screen printed notebook I made while first playing around with symmetry in my designs last year.

ahaha I did once work at a place with no bathroom (they had an agreement with a building across the alley to use theirs) and it sucked

Hey, I’m Sylvia, a printmaker and small biz owner living on Cape Cod. I mostly work in silkscreen, letterpress, and block printing and draw my inspiration from folklore and the natural world. You can find me living my best swamp witch life: walking in the woods and trying all hobbit-like crafts.

A6 orange & blue lino print of a running fox & flying owl

I'm late in all senses to the #printpromptmonday party - I was in A&E yesterday so...! What a marvellous idea @gemmatrickey.bsky.social & @strangford.bsky.social & ?who I can't remember... Sorry.
A lino print for "In Motion" prompt: I became a fox (you became an owl)". Should I reprint it?

Ahaha the sand worm is so good

Thanks 😋

Thank you!

Thank you! Selkies are the best!

Beautiful! Love the line work for the wind and snow

Block print in blue green and yellow of a woman diving into the ocean and turning into a seal as she hits the water. Lighthouse and night sky in the background.

It’s #printpromptmonday and the theme this week is “in motion.” A two color block print using the pink speedy carve stuff. She’s based on the Selkie mythology and was carved this summer after watching a seal in the harbor 🦭

Maroon bandana with crows, florals, and a pomegranate in black.

Printing these moody bandanas for my upcoming market in Salem in April @fiberwitchfestival.bsky.social. I can’t wait for this year’s theme, Persephone’s Coronation 🖤

So cool seeing them all together!

Love them! Do you have multiple blocks on the same piece of wood?

Block print in black on warm white paper of a standing weasel surrounded by flowers and leaves

Just squeaked under the wire for #printpromptmonday. The theme this week is #intothewild which feels perfect because moving back to my hometown and reacquainting myself with the nature here is what made me take up more printmaking outside of my production printing.

Oh no the little turnips are killing me!

Oh yay! I first learned letterpress on a no 4 and I miss that machine so much

Oh my god love them 💙

Love a process video! What model of vandercook do you use?

Hi artist friends, QRP with your artwork and share what other passions/jobs/hobbies you have?
✨
My hobbies are sewing clothes, knitting, and painting furniture. I also require nature walks to survive and am a member of my town’s Conservation Commission! What about you?

Oh yes! I definitely need to draw more raccoons
