Meditation 1 is coming to you in a very limited edition of 25, printed in a lovely earthy chocolatey brown colour known as ‘burnt umber’. The test prints have given very pleasing results and I’m happy to announce that this edition will be added as an option in the shop as soon as I can get the listing up and some better daylight photos to show the true colour. It’s exactly as I wanted them to turn out in ‘burnt umber’, natural and earthy. #linocut #printmakersofinstagram #flexcuttools #ets...

Here’s a throwback to the print I submitted when I exhibited with the 22nd Triennale Gretchen 2021, miniprint competition. The theme was ‘Time without time’. And, talking of time, I think it’s about time I came up with a few more mini prints to add to the shop. Check back in this space soon. ⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️ #linocut #miniprint #linoblockprint #linocutprint #printmakingart #printmakersofinstagram #carveouttimeforart #flexcut_tools #whimsicalart #etsyaustralia #etsyartist

A couple of places to tweak, but overall this little triptych setting featuring a cottage set amongst fields of sheep, is complete. I test printed using Cranfield Burnt Sienna, which gives a lovely reddish undertone. Like on the road trip, the expansive red landscapes we navigated through in South Australia. #linocut #linoblock #triptychart #printmakersofinstagram #testprint #etsyaustralia #etsyartist #whimsicalart #cranfieldcolours #flexcuttools
Do you guys remember my small block carving of a cottage? A little lonely stone cottage I’d passed on a recent road trip. The one that I decided to give a cheerier view, well, I’ve expanded on the view and these little blocks are ready for a first test print. #linocut #linoblock #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #carveouttimeforart #flexcuttools #etsyaustralia #etsyartist #waketomake #whimsicalart

I participated in the print exchange, my backyard 2024, hosted by @sally_printmaker @mixed_incs this year. My most wonderful haul of printy goodness arrived in the mail and I want to share these beauties with you all. Can’t wait to have them framed and displayed. Each is a treasure to keep. Thank you. @jr__illustration @blueadmiral68 @the_bluestamp julieprints @peacebypieceprints @loreleimedcalf @blockpartyprintsshop @ninafitzsimonsprints @rachnessprintmaker @sharonmegret_art Sw...
Progress looks like a few evolving shapes, incrementally adding to the texture on this large grey landscape. Spending time here has been a meditation, a luxury of time in my thoughts. Grateful. Meaningful. Cup being filled. #linocut #linogravure #printmakersofinstagram #flexcuttools #linocutting #abstractprintmaking #wipart #printmaking #etsyartist #etsyaustralia

I have been immersed in large abstracted linocuts for a while now and have missed the simplicity of carving something spontaneous and done quickly in one sitting. So this was how my afternoon was spent at the work desk today. This was inspired by a fleeting moment from a recent road trip. And, as we zipped passed this little abandoned stone cottage, I snapped a picture and it stayed in my thoughts. I wondered what this cottage had seen over the years, it looked so lonely, the only thing sta...

I feel like I’ve spent the day looking at craters on the moon. Everything has gone grayscale and wonderfully patterned and textured when you work with a lino block this big. #linocut #linoblock #printmakingart #printmakingabstract #flexcuttools #printmakersofinstagram #printmaking

Starting to carve the new block. It’s so good to get the tools sharpened and make a start on this big block, I’ve missed the process and the hours of quiet contemplation. Wish I could tell you how nice it feels to run your fingers over the carved section, I love feeling the grooves of the pattern. I’m going to enjoy working with this one. ⚒️✨⚒️✨⚒️✨⚒️✨⚒️✨ #linocut #linoblock #wipart #printmakersofinstagram #printmaker #abstractprintmaking #flexcuttools #carveouttimeforart #waketomake #weare...

Starting something new. It’s been a while. I’ve needed something to get absorbed into after working so closely with ‘Meditation 1’. This will be another long project that I’ll work on in the background of other upcoming projects. It’s good to be back. I’ve missed you all. 🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍 #linocut #linoprint #printmaking #printmakersofinstagram #carveouttimeforart #waketomake #etsyartist
