Came across this beauty by the river Forth. 2 of them. One in the bushes and the other standing watching me. Got a grainy pic before they were off. I couldn’t see the feet so made them up. Should I ground the image or just leave it as is?
7x12cm, Plexi. Cranfield etching ink.#drypoint #printmaking

I don’t colour my prints but this one wasn’t great. To try & save it I ran watercolour washes through it. I also included wild white clover which is found in the field. I’m reasonably pleased with it. What do you think? 7x8.5cm, monoprint & watercolour on 250gsm paper. #drypoint #monoprint #stirling

Small Drypoint monoprints. All slightly different with the core image, a large Oak tree in a farmers field close to home in Stirling, Scotland. 5 prints in total, showing 3 here. Which one do you prefer?

A few little sketches from my local walks around Stirling. Planning to turn these into prints. #pencildrawing #sketching #stirling

Another little monoprint which Im building a theme around ‘big places in small spaces’. View from Garshellach Forest, across the Carse of Stirling capturing the Castle in the horizon line. 9x3.5cm, Cranfield Etching Ink and acid free 250gsm paper. #drypoint #printmaking #printmakers #stirling

Two little prints from my local field. Imaginatively called the ‘Farmers Field’ 😂 The 1st is a straightforward drypoint print and the 2nd I’ve turned into a monoprint. Personally I prefer the 2nd. 9x3.5cm, Cranfield etching ink, 250gsm acid free paper. #printmakers #printmaking #drypoint

Continuing with my Blue Tit images. Little 13.5x8.5cm dry point. Stunning, joyous, little birds. #printmakers #birds #drypoint #printmaking #bluetit

Little monoprint with drypoint at its core. View to Ben Ledi & the Trossachs from Garshellach Forest on a cold and brooding day. #monoprint #drypoint #printmakers #printmaking

Today we meet print artist Rosanna Reade. We love her characterful domestic linocuts. They give us a sense of nostalgia and a simpler view of our complex lives. The cats are wonderful too!

It hasn’t been a great start to 2025 with the loss of my dad and my mother in law. Creativity has taking a back seat but now getting back into things. A pair of Blue Tits - a symbol of Hope & Optimism. I think I’ll frame them together. Drypoint. 8.5cm square. #birds #bluetits #drypoint #printmakers
