A project from 'Ecobooks'. Fabric covers using some of my linoprint fabrics and a pair of old shorts! They don't all have pages yet...another unfinished project!
A3 paper, A4 printed area. This is a companion piece to my prints of Arthur's Seat. This image focuses on the 'radical road' a path that winds up the side of the Salisbury Crags and gives stunning views over Edinburgh. The path is steep and clings to the side of the rocky face. It also has an awesome name.
This print is available in: Green/Orange/Dark Grey/Red
Green/Brown/Blue/Red
Green/Brown/Dark Grey/Red
Or atleast, in the process of creating a linocut print. Sketching, transferring, carving, and then the actual printing process. And I'm quite aware this shall turn out backwards XD
My mum absolutely adores giraffes, and I've never created anything for her, so I decided to do something about that. A lot of what I make is exclusive and personal. So this is a new phenomenon for me.
I chose to copy a photograph I saw on Google of a - presumably - mother giraffe leaning down to her baby. Kind of cutesy, but I think she likes it :) After all, I'm her only baby. And its kinda sentimental.
I think I'm going to fix the sketch of the mother giraffe's jaw before I start carving, so it looks more like the one to the left.
This was a print by the Welsh artist Pete Fowler that I bought on ebay recently, I'm going to get it framed tomorrow, it is a musician with a strange guitar and some horns, it came with a free Monsterism Island sticker and wrapped in some tissue with another sticker upon it.
To promote public transport in my area in the run-up to our local council elections, Suraya Sidhu Singh of New Plymouth, New Zealand created these linoprints. Members of the I Love Public Transport Taranaki group donated money to have them printed and put up around town.

A real place on a Scottish island. This ruin has been standing, with the crack, for many years and is a wonderfully evocative building.
Other sizes of card and print available.
1st layer printed with white acrylic to purposely show brush marks. Over-printed with turquoise printing ink then detail added with white gel pen.
My phone gets confused about how to focus on the words on the map when I print on it, but it's perfectly clear in real life. Sigh
In a bi-partisan show of support for both the Atlanta Falcons and the New England Patriots playing in Superbowl LI, I'm sharing #tbt shots of linocuts I've carved and printed.

A vision of Autumn, Acer trees come in such vivid colours and have such fantastic leaf shapes. Each is hand printed from a "trunk" block and a set of "4 leaves" so each is individual.

Perfection - what does it mean to you? For me (as I think for many artists) life is a constant balance between the wish to make things perfectly like I had it in mind - and constantly having to face that it doesn't work, will never work that way.
This edition of 20 prints (all different, see the whole edition here) is the result of my thinking about perfection. - And they are called "imperfection" :-)
On the backside they all carry a handwritten quote by Salvador Dali: "Have no fear of perfection - you'll never reach it." - The quote is by Dali, it's written by me :-)
I have several explanations for why these prints stand for "imperfection", but I don't want to preempt you in finding your own meaning and interpretation.
The sheets of paper on which prints numbered 1-10 are printed is a little larger than A4, about 30cm x 21 cm, printed on reclaimed paper.
