FUTURE POSITIVE (number 7)
Finished a series of prints I’ve been working on. Brand new woodtype & my own words. These bright, punchy posters – designed to be a bit tricky to read but worth deciphering for the encouraging message. This one reads “Savour The Sweet Juice Of Your Own Effort & Be Happy”

Apparently it’s International Potato Day 🥔 today May 30th. I do love potatoes. I am also trying to learn Hungarian which is very difficult but so far my all time favourite word is potato = krumpli 🥔 it’s so nice to say, it feels nice your mouth, just like potato 😂 #internationalpotatoday2025

Last few days of @secret7s charity auction raising money for @warchild Have seen all the record sleeves up for grabs at the @nowgalleryse10 in Greenwich? Not to worry, they’re all online too. Can you guess which 2 are mine? A clue, they’re letterpress printed 😂 Exhibition & Auction end on June 1st

Flabbergasted & Gobsmacked seem appropriate words whenever I read the news lately! I’m having a lot of fun playing with my bigger woodtype and my thesaurus. I’m building up a lovely, fun & colourful collection.

5 years on
Pandora’s Petri Dish - A pristine, centre wrapped in a protective layer of hope. Outside the defensive spiral swirl multifarious microscopic threats. Thanks to the scientists whose quiet intense work brings us relief from so many awful diseases. Vaccines save lives. #covid #letterpress

I’ve had this twofer M & horseshoe block for ages. I saw the 2018 @johnmulaney 🐴 skit for the first time and laughed so much. I made this print as a welcome moment of lightness in these dark news days. Here in antiseptic turquoise & crackers orange #theresahorseinthehospital #printmaking

Stop the doomscrolling. The mystical power of the ‘Naked Reverse WiFi Guy’ is the stuff of legend...all he wants is a bit of peace and quiet, yet there he is nonchalantly squashing the WiFi back where it came from! Why is he naked ? 🤷‍♀️ available for the digitally overwrought from @letteringartstrust

Feeling grim with a cold so low energy studio tidying. Found these prints made in response to…well, take your pick! The space above my new woodtype wall was the perfect for ‘discombobulated!’ Alongside ‘Slava Ukraini’ & ‘Breathe’ reflecting the current mood pretty well.

28 Feb is #rarediseaseday In UK, pop ~6.34M, I’m one of ~8,400 with #AddisonsDisease No cure. Manageable with lifelong treatment but can, & has been life threatening. I’m also an artist, this bookart was 1st of what has become a growing body of sci-art. Funny where a strange diagnosis can lead.

I’d show you my 2 entries for #secret7s but it’s a secret til June🤫 Used my analogue tools & real live inky fingers. Exhibited & auctioned for charity…artist & musician a mystery til the buyer holds it…could be bidding on a famous artist, or me! 😅 2012 to 2021 over £500K for good causes. #warchild

The Future Is Fluid. I was playing with positive words and arrows when I made this. Somehow it seems more important now

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Slava Ukraini. Can’t believe it’s been three years since I made these prints.

Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812 at @donmarwarehouse Amazing singers, musicians, costumes, sets…a sumptuous feast for the eyes and ears. Here’s my inky version of the prologue…I’ve chosen characters for the characters from my type collection & had lots of fun with my roller! #letterpress
