I’m very excited to be heading to Ulverston this week for my first PrintFest. I will be one of 40 printmakers selected to take part and I am really looking forward to it! #printmaking #printfest #printfestulverston
I think I have finished this pencil drawing of some ancient pollarded beech trees on Leith Hill. I’m fascinated by the interconnection between trees. Is this 1 tree or 5, or more?

First proof of a new etching “The Shard from the Sky Garden”. Some tweaking required but I’m pretty happy with it so far.

Working on a new etching which I’m hoping to get finished in time for an upcoming exhibition at Morley College with other members of Southbank Printmakers. Nothing like a deadline to focus the mind!

I’ve bought my entries for the RA Summer Exhibition (or made my annual donation to their coffers?) but there are no printmakers on the committee this year so I wonder if I should even try? Who else is throwing their hat into the ring this year?

I made a video which I posted as a reel on Instagram but it’s too long for Bluesky and life is too short to edit it again!
2024 felt like a busy and exciting year. Highlights included the RA Summer Exhibition, the RBA, the SGFA & the NEAC at the Mall Galleries, 2nd prize at the RBSA & being featured in Pressing Matters magazine. Can’t wait to get back into the studio! #reviewoftheyear #printmaker #printmaking #studio
These are zinc plates etched with nitric acid but recently I have been working more on copper plates etched with ferric chloride.
Tomorrow I will be demonstrating miniature tetrapak printmaking at Kew Studio from 11am. Come and join in the fun! #kewstudio #printmaking #openpressproject
I love a shed and the more dilapidated the better! I did a whole series of etchings of allotments before we moved to the countryside and now I’m doing barns!
I am absolutely delighted that my etching ‘Dilapidated Barns at Hangers Wood’ has been selected for the Works on Paper exhibition at the Royal West of England Academy, Bristol. 25 Jan – 27 Apr 2025.

I really enjoyed the programme, thank you.
Work in progress at the moment. Two zinc plate etchings of Lastours near Carcassonne. Plenty still to be done to get these where I want them…

The little humbugs! 😍

WIP ‘The Thames looking east’ & ‘The Thames looking west’. I might make an edition like this & a 2nd edition with hand colouring. I hope these etchings will be in an exhibition next year with Southbank Printmakers “Tides and Tales”.

The midiprints are up at Southbank Printmakers Gallery in Gabriel’s Wharf. A wonderful selection; something for everyone. £90 framed or £70 unframed. There’s a launch party this evening from 6-8 #printmaking #printmaker #etching #buyart #meettheartist #exhibition #photopolymergravure #midiprints
First try - very exciting. So many possibilities!
That’s exactly what I have in mind!
Look what came in the post today! My postcard sized press from the @openpressproject has arrived! I’m so excited and I can’t wait to try it out!

Hello printmakers, have a look at this!
Hello Denise! I think there are printmakers here but it’s early days and we are still trying to find each other. Hopefully the Printmakers Council can help us find each other and promote printmaking to a wider audience.
The winter is proving to be very busy - the next exhibition is the midi-print show at Southbank Printmakers. All the prints are 12x12cm, £90 framed, £70 unframed. I have 2 photopolymer prints in the show; “Meet me under the clock” & “Barbican Shadows”. #printmaking #printmaker #photopolymergravure
Yes, fully restored. Apparently the Colombian press had been on the first floor of a building and fell through the floor but survived the fall with only superficial damage!!
I love the blue shadows across snow
Really enjoyed my visit to the print shop in Blists Hill. Beautiful presses! #print #columbianpress #albionpress #blistshill #ironbridge
The range of colours you can get from four blocks of lino never fails to amaze me!
