Rabbits and blossoming trees are traditional symbols of fertility and the awakening of earth in spring time around here. So I thought I would show you this print for #printpromptmonday theme #earth. I printed on light grey canvas and love the extra structure given to the #print . #linocut #printsky

#printpromptmonday My favourite print so far are these little tits. Printing is such an exciting journey and as I am pretty new to it every print teaches me something important, surprises and excites me. Same with all the amazing artists sharing their work on this platform 😍

In the making for #printpromptmonday ... Hope you don't mind it's already Sunday of the week. But I wanted to show you these little birds #inthemaking 🌱 spring is around the corner and I try to catch this feeling of giddy almost beginning ...

Some weeks ago, early in the morningon a misty lake, I went face to face with a grey heron. Truth be told: the original one didn't look as composed as the linocut 😉 but nonetheless I was impressed by it's beauty ... It's an entry for #printpromptmonday and this weeks theme #water 🙏

Daily sketches ... Working on flowers and bouquets as spring and Easter is very much on my mind. #dailysketches #drawing #naturestudy #practicedrawing #dailypractice

Next to cut ... a blueberry and a dogrose. Both are at home in my part of the woods and I can dream of summer while cutting them ☀️

I try to linocut or draw a little almost every day. Some days I'm worn out from work and have to push myself. But it's the habit that counts! I have to show up for me and the art ... also, this little plant study lifted my mood. 😊🌿

Little Sparrow ❤️ (testprint. I still have to get rid of all the unwanted lines) #linocut #handmade #bird #sparrow

How much do you cut off, how much is too much? Linocutting might want to teach me something 😉 #linocut #linocutting #printmaking #printmakingrogress

we learn that there is no growth in winter. every tree is still, plant sleeps and tries to slander as less resources as possible. walking through the winter woods ... I don't think this is exactly true. Besides the thin layer of frost, there is also a lot of tiny green... #nature #naturemusings
