Printmaking and a catch up

It’s been a while since I last posted. We have  had a Year 12 ball
Daughter 1 looking gorgeous!
Daughter 4 had a birthday party:

The theme was “Crafts” and the elder daughters made a mural which the party goers decorated.

You can see some of my hand printed cloth being used as a table cover!

9 years old! yay!
I have had two printmaking classes. Nothing to show from this week as we were making plates to print from next week . But these are samples of overprinting and ‘ghost ‘prints from last week.

I used leaves, lace,fabric and various other things to make prints.

And lastly I am playing in a concert this weekend.

Hope you have a restful weekend.

New Toys

I was excited last week as I got a parcel from the States with some supplies that I have been looking for for ages:

Some special drawing fluid for screen printing and some soft carving blocks for printing.
Here is my first attempt at block printing :


Tried printing some fabric but not pleased with it yet.

Working on it. Have some screens underway too. Pictures soon.
