new stuff!

i have three new items i've created, a postcard set, and two greeting cards, just in time for chrimble!:


postcard set
the postcard pack contains eight cards (4 designs - 2 of each), all printed on heavyweight 300g recycled card. the images are all linocut designs that i've had printed digitally. i'm pretty pleased with how they look...






The pack is available from my Folksy shop, and also from various fairs i'll be selling at in november/december in Yorkshire. Oh, it is £4 plus p+p...

greeting cards 
i've created two new greeting cards, both based on lino-cut images i have created (one quite old, one brand new), and printed digitally. again, they are printed on heavyweight 300g card, and come with a lovely ribbed brown paper envelope (like old wrapping paper). i'm selling them in packs of 3 in my Folksy shop, and also at the fairs too. Are they christmassy? i don't know! 

packs are £5 plus p+p....























cheers!

'Ear Syringe' print for sale

my print of a rubber ear syringe is now for sale in my Folksy shop, and I'll also be selling it at the various upcoming markets/fairs. 
 
a doctor gave me the rubber syringe and to use it at home. it worked! i was really struck by the beauty of the object, and so decided to create an artwork based on it.
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
it is a pencil and paint image, as a slight detour from my normal printwork. the media seemed to suit the subject better. the print is on 200g cyclus white card, A3 in size.
 

a few other new items to post up in the next few days...busy busy...
 
cheers
