So one customer, some passers by greetings and window browsers. This morning some friends popped in after their yoga class at the loft community hall and were taken by my Wolf moon and pier piece on wood. The rest of the day I drew, did some linocut editing, read and sat near a radiator when …
So Thursday, no shop but collating a range of studio ideas linked to voluntary work party at the sailing club and some possible photos to prompt sketches of box task. Then two walks at Swyre Head and on Swanage seafront with more pictures taken especially on Swyre head linked to my 2022 panorama project. So …
So, January 25 I started the cutting of a linocut piece for the first of potentially four different Purbeck drystone wall designs. I had said to myself after my last linocut attempt at Swanage pier thatI must try something easier yet here I was doing something complicated again. In the last two weeks I have …
Online presence is something I have a lot of for AndyKnillArt but not used efficiently enough. It is something I am aware I could try and do better although I don’t find it as much fun as the art. Yesterday I spent time tidying links up. I have updated the linktr.ee account for the studio …

My studio day today started with a phone call to a retailer I had ordered items from in December 2021. After my first email one item of my order arrived. Two further emails have not been replied to and today I tried to talk to customer service – no one available – has anyone else …
Having looked yesterday at a brief summary of five years of AndyKnillArt today I want to look forwards with AndyKnillArt Studio and plans for the shop going into month 6 and the period through to its first anniversary on September 1. I have settled in well to having my own space. The needs of working …
Realistically, could I sell some of my art? It took until Feb 20 for that to happen for the first time. But I thought I would look back at some of the figures over the last five years. Blogging Www.AndyKnillArt.com has been the home of my blog about the art business. In 2021 I set …
Today I did quite a bit at the studio. First was checking the proofs of my new card series of Watersports cards which I dropped off at the printer yesterday. I also tidied up the window, valentines cards. I updated my mask sign, ie I will respect customer choice and wear my mask if they …
