Secrets and beavers

I've been a busy little beaver this weekend but I've been busy making a birthday present so can't post any photos 'til the happy day has passed.  In honour of my industry I thought I'd post some beavers.  The poor chaps are making do until I have the actual beavers but they're part of my texture experiment for my backgrounds.

Verdict: Nearly.  Needs tweaking.

Experiment

Today has been another lot of screen printing in pale colours so unless you want to tilt your screens and crane your necks I'll save you the trouble and just post a little carved person experiment.

Lottie hated being posted squint.

Hi!

Hi!

After avoiding eye contact with my laptop for several days it has finally coaxed me into attempting a blog.  In the past technology and I have kept a safe distance from one another so hopefully this foray back into it won't somehow label me as 'the girl who broke the internet.'  


Here's hoping!

This is from a new series of lino cuts which will hopefully make up my new book.  It's based on the legend of the thorn bird.

And these are the screen prints (the right way round cos I'm a bad lino cutter and don't do it like I ought to).  Imagine the above a little greener if you will...
