Drypoint

Here are some drypoint prints, some of which were monotypes I made earlier this year and hadn't used them as they were not very attractive on their own. I printed over them with the drypoint image and I like some of them a little more now. Still not sure about them but I love drypoint and look forward to doing it again. Did I mention before that I want a printing press ???? :0))) Thanks again for dropping by.

Collagraph Prints




I did these prints at a recent workshop and had no idea when making the plate what they would end up like. I enjoyed this process but only got 2-3 good prints from the plate unfortunately. These are the best 2.

I almost forget how to post!!!

If there is anybody out there still looking in on this blog - HELLO :0))))

I've been busy in lots of ways and blogging has not been top of the list lately but I am happy to say that i have FINALLY finished my City & Guilds Creative Sketchbook course with Linda Kemshall and I can definitely recommend it to anyone wishing to develop their skills. I am now pursuing another course (real life this time!!) and hope to be able to show some images of that work in the coming weeks and its on embroidered textiles so a little different from where I started out on this blog.

In the meantime, here are some piccies of my sketchbook assessment.



This was based on a heritage building in the town of Carlingford.
