The problem with "Labour" is that Starmer has told as many lies as Johnson and for that reason, those tory switchers won't. Nor will those traditional Labour voters.

#LabourInNameOnly #LINO

Starmer's Praise of Thatcher means he's just lost a few thousand more labour voters for a handful of tory voters. As I have predicted for the last few years, turnout will play a major part in the next election. Many won't vote, I will but if no suitable candidate, I will spoil my paper because they have to be counted too.

There's 12 days until my last recommended UK ordering date so I thought I'd run you down with a little 12 Days of Creepmas countdown!

Starting with... A Krampus Checking Their List.

The first Krampus design I ever did and still available in it's original linocut form and with the two original naughty children.

Last International (Non-UK) is TODAY!!
Get your orders in quick to avoid disappointment.
Sorry for it being so early but international post has never really recovered since the pandemic and everything is snail mail now!

If you see this late and still want something let me know and I'll see what I can do but expedited shipping might be required to get orders to you before Xmas!

Last years Krampus card has made a reappearance, you obviously didn't get the message about blocking up your chimneys so I thought I'd give you a second shot.

L12(WIP). Hibiscus.
So work in progress, but press arriving in a few days so excited to see crisper lines. But I'm really proud of this one. Lino has a weird bumpy learning curve but it's fun.
Hibiscus always makes me think of KZN, Durban, and that one awesome coffee shop that made Hibiscus tea but they later closed down.

Well, new v-tool and figured out a way to do little dots and got it done. What a nice way to spend the day. Did some test prints and need to do some more practice prints. Took a bit to get the right coverage but I remember it's like the block has to get broken in or something (lol more like the printer has to get it together and figure out ink consistency). This is the block, inked up and looking pretty good, imho. #lino #linocut #cats #holidaycard

Photo of mostly completed linoleum block. Shows two (black) cats looking out a window at falling snow. Aorund the window is draped some lights. The cats sit on a blanket done in crosshatching and their tails overlap slightly. The one at left sits and the one at right is in cat loaf position. The block is inked so all the lines stand out as light gray and will be white when printed.

First of the new cards this year! My take on the Welsh folk tradition of Mari Lwyd.

Nothing says Xmas than a skeletal horse banging on your door for beer and snacks in my opinion! And I know the Welsh feel the same.
Let’s go a-wassailing!

L'atelier des vanités

I've decided I'm gonna utilise my fancy printer (that I barely use) and re-release my old Xmas cards this year! Found a lovely linen textured card stock to print on and about 6 designs will be coming back.
My very first Krampus card is available again now and the rest will be up over the weekend!

WIP. Pinkwashing.

Have to wait for the ink to dry now.

Text reads: "Not in my name! Fuck Israeli pinkwashing! Queerness doesn't cost 4000 palestinian children's lives!"

Linocut progress of me transferring pencil to lino in prep for carving. I outlined the text on the lino with ink. So on the left is the paper and pencil draft and on the right is the image and text reversed on lino.

Text reads: "Not in my name! Fuck Israeli pinkwashing! Queerness doesn't cost 4000 Palestinian children's lives!"

L11. Digitalus purpurea: Foxglove.

This piece of lino was a bit crunchy to cut through so I compromised with detail and went for a more stylized look, but it works for me.

Watched a fascinating demo by Scott Flanders about the nature of creature design and readability in shapes, and he spoke about how such simple shapes can read as threatening. So as my last Halloween entry. Something a bit scary.

On a more happy, less scary note. A happy season's passing to those celebrating Samhain and Beltaine in the Northern and Southern hemispheres

66. The Devil.

For Halloween, it seemed appropriate.

How the fuck do i have a degree in printing and am missing half my tools. Time to light a bill on fire to get more.
