Today started with a walk on the beach before work and another reference picture to help with my current panorama project. Coffee pre work at Java and very soon after my new purchase arrived and was fitted and not the shop has a sign all the time outside. I am still using the studio flag …
So the first linocut product for 2022 – ‘Kayaker’ as a greetings card. I have made the decision that I will hand print at the studio all pieces I produce this year and that each design will be produced as a limited edition. The first card (above) is a series of 100 and the first …
One of the targets I have set myself to work on this year is to draw some panorama pieces. I have some record of doing this previously as my art has developed. My first one came in July 2017 when the buyers of my Beach Huts original commissioned a larger version of a colour pencil …
