It's always nice when .....

It's always nice to make a sale, or two as is the case this week, which is an absolutely fantastic feeling - especially after a small hiatus .  Firstly, one of the affordable art prints sold in Rebel Vintage, closely followed by a little original hand painted print in Walkmill @no7.  I have replaced both but annoyingly I keep forgetting to take photos (or scans) of the originals before I send them off.  Helen has very kindly sent me a photo of 'Summer' in situ.  This is the new little hand painted print that she now has in stock.

Summer 1/1 HPP - £18

Sadly I don't think I have a photo of the previous one that sold to share with you.  They are both a linocut print that has then been hand painted in watercolours before being mounted and then framed in these gorgeous dinky black wood frames.  

This was my second carving of our spring trip and I really enjoyed being able to carve whilst on the road.  I only packed a cheap black relief printing ink though which only really allowed me to test the carving quickly, leaving the proper printing until our return.  It was enough to let me know if the carving was finished or not and it did allow for a digital play with colours.  The digital one below is very similar to 'Autumn' which has recently sold.

I've also added a tryptch to the stock in Rebel Vintage. Again (sadly) I don't have a photo, but the black framed print contains the following 3 images, laid out in this order.  All three started life as gelli printed backgrounds onto which the scenes were painted using acrylic paints.  These were then digitally scanned and have reproduced onto fine art portfolio rag paper.  This set is titled 'Country Roads' and has been reduced from £20 to £17.50, so grab yourselves a bargain.


Thanks for reading and please feel free to message me if you've seen anything of interest to you.

Hello and welcome

A glimpse into my studio -  Hello there! It's taken me a while but I've finally started work on my online presence to accompany my creative journey.  To be honest this post is pretty much a place holder whilst I work on constructing the galleries and links to my online shop.  For a while it will remain the top blog post and I'll update it as I go along. Hopefully when all the construction work is completed the blog posts will be used to reflect where I'm at creatively and share some of my experiences. I have started work on my online shop (hosted by Sum-Up)  Eventually you'll find pages for cards, limited editions, originals and a full gallery listed at the top of my Home page.  These will detail the art work that is available and will provide a link to that item in the shop. If you'd like to just go straight to the shop then please follow this link here . I've no idea how many folk I'm likely to reach but hopefully it will be fun finding out, and please...

Well that sure turned our lifestyle on it head didn't it ........

Life can change in the blink of an eye- or in my case - in the last few seconds of a catch up call with my youngest daughter.  There isn't a need for details here but long story short - We've upped and moved house back to the Midlands, we've sold the motorhome and are no longer part-time travellers.  There, when it's said quickly it all sounds so simple.  The impact upon this particular little slice of the internet is that I no longer have a studio and any work I do is definitely no longer done under the arms of a gorgeous old oak tree.  However, as it took me soooooooooo very long to come up with a name for my little practise I've decided it can stay as is for now.  Also for the time being my cards will continue to be stocked in Knighton and the plan is to look for additional outlets in my new locality.   My mojo, however, is something else entirely. Actually that is probably better described as lack of mojo and having half my 'stuff' still packe...
