I suspect this way lies madness, but I guess we'll see. Not high on the priority list, but I'll get to it eventually...

Had such a lovely time. Not there today, but it was so great to see so many people in the beautiful walled garden and to set some of my prints free into the wild.

When I started out printing, everyone said "you'll find your thing after a while". Now, as I come to register paper for my latest print, I find myself thinking, "how did I end up specialising in architectural prints?" #printmaking

Just ordered some A2 lino sheets, but it's a case of mo' paper mo' problems (as Biggie may have said), where the hell am I going to dry these prints? Thinking cap on! #printmaking

No sale this time, but I think the "Cheese Grater" looked good in Fronteer Gallery. Onwards and upwards! #printmaking #sheffield

Things take so long to dry at this time of year! Just come to put another layer on, and the previous layer wasn't even close to dry after two weeks. #printmaking #brr

The experiment continues and the flaws multiply... Already thinking about how I'll do things differently for the next version. Think I'll press on with the final two layers though.

Dusted off the "Seafarers" plate from 2021. Unusually for me it was carved into Japanese vinyl. Nice to print off, but not as versatile as traditional lino (in my opinion). #printmaking #nohumanisillegal

Last year I experimented with linocut baubles. Fun to carve and print, a nightmare to assemble. #linocut #printmaking
