Before Christmas swallows me up whole I thought I'd just write to say thanks for all your support over the last year.
It has clearly been a tricky year for everyone, and I really do appreciate every bit of interest shown to me and my print work.
As far as prints are concerned, I've had a lot of fun experimenting with bright colours, transparencies, new landscapes, new birds, new textile products and of course a whole load of donkeys! My new screenprint studio is now behaving itself and it is great to have the flexibility to try new things whenever I like.
Events have been so much fun this year. I have really missed getting out and about over lockdown, and it has been great to see organisers able to launch their events and the visitors too. There have been great new events, like Printed Bound at Sunny Bank Mills, Leeds, and a return to some of my favourites, including Printfest, Wirksworth Festival, Great Northern Contemporary Craft Fair, The Hepworth Wakefield Print Fair, Welbeck Winter Weekend and Nottingham Contemporary. Also as a co-organiser myself, it was wonderful to see so many people come along to Sheffield Print Fair this year!
Next year I've already got some exciting plans, but I can't really say anything yet! I hope you have a great festive break, and I will see you in the new year.
Take care
