Inspired by "Bandits" by Midlake (lyrics below) and the wonderful vintage photos uncovered by Mrs Inman. Need to sleep on this for a while, but here is the work in progress. Apologies if it gives you nightmares (!).
Did you ever want to be overrun by bandits
To hand over all of your things and start over new
While we were out hunting for food
Our house was being robbed
I caught an apple and she caught a fox
So I caught a rabbit but she caught an ox
So upon our return we found everything gone
Which for us was no loss
We started over with a rabbit and an ox
So they came down from the north
Carrying all they owned
With a basket full of food and clothes
They were stopped by a weekend raid
Traveling the woods one day
Tried to put up a fight but lost
So we asked for them to stay
With us on their way
To have a drink and rest
And regain their strength
Did you ever want to run around with bandits
To see many places and hide in ditches
It's not always easy, it's not always easy
When the winter comes and the greenery goes
We will make some shelter
When the winter comes and the greenery goes
We will make some shelter
The Japanese tsunami disaster really struck a chord with me and I have made a small bookmark sized linoprint in response. The home videos of the water washing away houses and cars and huge ships washing inland. My heart goes out to all the families trying to find each other.
I am selling this bookmark on etsy and donating $5 to the Red Cross Tsunami Relief for every bookmark I can sell.

Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita was a Jewish-Dutch painter, woodblock artist, and designer active in Amsterdam during the late 19th to early 20th century. He initially produced delicate watercolor drawings. However, he soon switched to decorative arts, as well as woodcuts and etchings. Mesquita’s works drew upon geometrical composition, simplicity concentrating on the main form, making them modern and unique. His recurrent themes included people portraits, exotic animals, plants, and flowers. His life tragically ended in 1944 when he, together with his family, was deported to Auschwitz. Two years later, a retrospective exhibition was set up in his honor at Amsterdam’s Stedelijk Museum.

A hand pulled linocut depicting Robert Thomas' iconic bronze statue in Llwynypia, erected in 1993. This is the second in my series of prints of images associated with coal mining in the Rhondda Valleys, South Wales. Still some tidying up to do but thought I'd share it at this stage as I might not come back to it for a while.

THE KINGDOM OF MUSHROOMS
More than 30 years have passed since the Chernobyl disaster, since then the radioactive magma that was generated following the explosion of the fourth reactor was buried under a vault of steel and cement. Over the years the various and systematic inspections of the protective sarcophagus have revealed a black mushroom rich in melanin which, despite a very inhospitable and prohibitive environment, grew more and more flourishing on the walls of the protective structure. A team of researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York has studied the phenomenon and found that strong ionizing radiations, more or less deadly for most living beings, are a major vital resource for fungi, in fact, researchers have shown that mycetes, thanks to a mechanism similar to that of chlorophylline photosynthesis, can absorb the radiations to develop and thrive.
I believe that in any post-nuclear scenario the mushrooms can not be missing and so as they have colonized the walls of the sarcophagus of the Chernobyl reactor are definitely destined to colonize the world. It seems unbelievable that this simple spongy and brainless organism, in the case of a nuclear catastrophe, is sure to survive the human species.
In Italy the boletus edulis also known as porcino is one of the most loved and sought after spontaneous mushrooms, and is considered the king of mushrooms and woods, it is a sin that it is greedy with ionizing radiation, especially cesium 137.
Oil-based ink on rice paper, about A4 in size.

A hand pulled linocut of six miners from the Rhondda who toured the UK in the 1920's singing to raise money for miner welfare. This is part of my series of prints of images associated with coal mining in the Rhondda Valleys, South Wales. ("image reproduced by permission of Rhondda Cynon Taf Libraries")
