Sorry for being inactive I am currently lost in multiple rabbit holes
My #oystermushroom colonies are fruiting
I've started crocheting a head piece to go with and help stabilise my demon horns

And I'm also crocheting a tapestry of Ron Stampler from Dungeons & Daddies to hang on my door

Once your blocks are carved it's time to do a test print, I find it's important to accidentally peel up one of your tabs and have to stick it back down and pray to god it's not too misaligned but god is rarely merciful :)

I've done a test print but it's still a work in progress! ❤️

This is the stage where you procrastinate carving and get really anxious about it printing right

The chickens are transferred to the blocks and now I need to think about what order I'm going to print them in, what details I want in which colours, how they will overlap and where I want to have my white/negative space #process #linocut

I may have squealed when I saw the prints from @fionabarnacle.bsky.social had arrived today-The artwork is so beautiful and I can't wait to get the prints up on my wall.
I adore the ringtail zine tysm!

Was cleaning up my workspace and forgot about these 2 prints! Amazing how being under a piece of paper makes them cease to exist 😅
Anyway if you like swiss cows and want a print I've put these 2 up on my kofi!

The snails are now up on my kofi!
You can find them here ko-fi.com/s/89fcbc5b18
There's only 8 prints available &
They are based on the Scaly-foot gastropod which lives around hydrothermal vents and incorporates iron sulphides into it's skeleton.

The carving on this tasty #invertefest inspired cicada lino is done! There's something so edible about the raw linoleum, I'll definitely frame some of my carvings when they get too worn for printing.. I'm really happy with this rotund boy and his big puppy eyes

He's quite rotund and short for a cicada but we aren't here to body shame him, he's still a pretty boy
