- There's a fungus among us....
- Once your blocks are carved it's time to do a test print, I find it's important to accidentally peel up one of your tabs and have to stick it back down and pray to god it's not too misaligned but god is rarely merciful :) #printpromptmonday #process #linocut #art #linoprint #printmaking
- This is the stage where you procrastinate carving and get really anxious about it printing right
- The chickens are transferred to the blocks and now I need to think about what order I'm going to print them in, what details I want in which colours, how they will overlap and where I want to have my white/negative space #process #linocut
- Work on the trans chicken print begins! He has a pretty shape🐔 #printpromptmonday #process #linocut #art #linoprint #printmaking
- I may have squealed when I saw the prints from @fionabarnacle.bsky.social had arrived today-The artwork is so beautiful and I can't wait to get the prints up on my wall. I adore the ringtail zine tysm! If you want some beautiful and detailed linoprints check them out!!! www.etsy.com/shop/fionaba...

- Kofi asked me to do this & I really wasn't sure how to frame it, it's more just a letter to creative people in general ko-fi.com/Post/A-Lette... #KofiCreativeLetter
- Was cleaning up my workspace and forgot about these 2 prints! Amazing how being under a piece of paper makes them cease to exist 😅 Anyway if you like swiss cows and want a print I've put these 2 up on my kofi! ko-fi.com/s/4da697f87f #linocut #printmaking #art #linoprint #cow #Switzerland
- I have been betrayed by Royal mail.. He walked up to my door, took a photo of the door, and left without even ringing the bell.. By the time I got to the front door he was getting back in his van and drove off before I could call out to him

- The snails are now up on my kofi! You can find them here ko-fi.com/s/89fcbc5b18 There's only 8 prints available & They are based on the Scaly-foot gastropod which lives around hydrothermal vents and incorporates iron sulphides into it's skeleton. #linocut #printmaking #art #linoprint #bugs

- 8 Snails drying on my lines for the kofi store.. Some nice variation to the gradient and some really tasty textures on these! #linocut #printmaking #linoprint #art
- One of my prints sold and I'm running around the house frantically googling to make sure Im putting the right amount of stamps on the envelope so I can use the post box, to avoid the post office, because going to the post office in my area is a *bad* time 🫠

- The carving on this tasty #invertefest inspired cicada lino is done! There's something so edible about the raw linoleum, I'll definitely frame some of my carvings when they get too worn for printing.. I'm really happy with this rotund boy and his big puppy eyes #linocut #printmaking #art #cicada

- He's quite rotund and short for a cicada but we aren't here to body shame him, he's still a pretty boy #linocut #printmaking #art #WIP
- Everyone's #invertefest posts have really been inspiring me.. Next lino WIP is in progress! The Annual Cicada 😊 #linoprint #printmaking
- #invertefest old art but still my favourite Linoprint 🪲❤️
