Haven't been that good at posting on here, but here's a few prints from my sea collection.
I was feeling quite creatively stuck at the start of the year so decided to give myself a theme and stick to it, and it definitely helped with removing a bit of pressure, and to just enjoy making :)

Very pleased with my how riso prints of my rooms turned out. Always a bit risky with so much chance of misalignment!

#printpromptmonday this week is Foliage!
I'm using sea foliage rather than earth based, mainly because that's all that is occupying my print brain at the moment!
I'll stop posting sea things soon I promise.

A temporary and slightly wonky frame for a print I bought in Cambodia.
Described as 'temple rubbings' though they aren't actually from one of the temples any more.
I probably paid too much for it ($15) but sometimes haggling over something you can afford felt a bit icky.
Anyway, I love it.

Been working away for the past month on all things sea themed. It's been quite rewarding to be focused on one theme, but I definitely have ideas for other things now.
These are 3 of the small blocks.
Hoping to have everything ready to launch on the 3rd April...

A new print! Atlantis fish and chips
I love fish and chip shops and I'm not sure why. And seagulls.

My 70+ mother is headed to a protest. She’s an artist, does a lot of very meticulous still lifes. She texted me that she was worried her sign didn’t look enough like Trump.
…Mom.

It wouldn't let me add the board to the last post, but this was the lino print board for the game I made artwork for. Making a circular and never ending board challenged me I will tell you that!!

Commissions I've worked on!
Including interior companies, Guinness (the most nuts thing ever) and also a Bronte themed board game (yet to exist) which I designed over 60 cards, a board and a box for.
✨️Manifesting more projects✨️

Bluesky seems like a safe place, so here's a little poem I wrote recently. I'm not a writer, but I do love scribbling. I will make this into a lino comic at some point.
Have been feeling the pull back to Ireland get stronger lately, and it seems to get harder every time I go back.

Joining in #printpromptmonday and the theme this week is #inmotion
My prints aren't that "motiony" but I can't bloody wait for Spring so I've chosen this print, 'Dancing Bluebells'. An oldie but a goodie. Looking forward to seeing real Bluebells jangling and jiving in the wind. #linocut

Pink! Layer 3 of my coral reef reduction print.
Waiting for more white ink to arrive as I want it a little more pale.
