We made coastal garlands yesterday! For the upcoming fairs.

I had so much fun illustrating this garland.

This year I will hopefully be making a stand up coastal scene based on this garland.

Here's one of my favourite prints from a few years ago, Between Tides. It's based on Mousehole harbour wall.

It's a five colour screenprint, all hand printed by me. Here's a link to a video of me printing it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gtT5mnCi_I

I made this Beach Findings print exactly five years ago.

It is a three colour screenprint in yellow, blue and black with a bit of overprinting to achieve green.

Four years ago I made this Boat House print. Four years! It doesn't feel like it.

With these coastal paths prints I started to explore texture and using scraped ink (which you can see in the cliffs).
