A tiny linocut I made a few years ago: the red-legged grasshopper.

One of the most common grasshoppers in NA, these are the most commonly seen grasshoppers in the NE US & S Canada. Reddish-brown on their backs, yellow-green below, they are named for their orangy-red legs. In high-density, these grasshoppers can be considered a garden or agricultural pest who eat grain.

So we did see a moose, in New Brunswick, though it had no antlers and it bolted before we could get a photo, so instead, enjoy this linocut I made on delicate translucent washi.

Greetings Mastodon! I love nature - particularly #birds - and create art inspired by it. At the moment I'm mostly a #printmaker using the #linocut method. I also use colour pencils, embroidery and gouache when I fancy it. Have a look on my website: http://www.katiefuller.co.uk

#introduction

I didn't do an #introduction:

I am a #printmaker, #graphicdesigner, one time #bookshop owner and #publisher but always a #reader.

Now working in #MentalHealth education. Gratuitous posts about living in the #tropics. Love an #election (local, state, national, international) - wherever in the world it may be.

Oh! I also once met a #dalek. Wasn't even scared.

Hi. Moving over here from the bird app. I’m a #poet, #printmaker (mostly #linocut), #collagist, publisher of a small #poetry press, and a freelance #BookDesigner. I read across all genres, and enjoy all forms of visual #art. Expect photos of #Maine scenery (we hike a lot), links to #poems, and pics of the #books and #art I’m making. I imagine it will take me a few days to get acclimated. Happy to follow you back!

OK #Introduction. I’m currently an #artist #printmaker but I have been a #teacher, and an #eventsmanager, and I’ve worked in #theatre. Other interests are #ukpolitics and #cats
