This is one of my favourite #linocut prints, #LangdalePikes from #BleaTarn. It holds so many special memories of a week of walking and camping at the National Trust’s Great #Langdale Campsite in the #LakeDistrict.

Today’s #snow reminded me of this #linocut print, Winter #Keld. It’s inspired by a photo I took in #Swaledale. My first intention was to evoke a summer's day, but whilst printing it, I loved it without the green block, and hence this snowy version.

Hand-printing takes time. Each colour layer in each print is #handprinted individually, with 3 days or more drying time between each colour. Here I’m printing the 5th colour layer for #Swaledale II.

A wild wet and windy two days walking with family in the #YorkshireDales. Isn’t it just typical that when you book time off the weather is pants!

“They are even more beautiful in person, and I love the card you sent, also. I’m going to frame all three and will admire and enjoy them for many, many years.”

Valley of Desolation walk. Isn’t that a great name! Last weekend we walked along The Strid at #BoltonAbbey, up the Valley of Desolation, up to Simon’s Seat and back along the Dales Way.

A fabulously creative day spent playing with colour and the jigsaw linocut technique to create two and three-colour prints.

It’s been a lovely, creative day with a group who came to my beginners #linocut workshop in the summer and wanted to come back to make #ChristmasCards. Just 1 place left for autumn on 21 November.
