It is great to have a professional photographer as a studio mate- Liz picked up my camera today and in about five minutes she just about captured exactly what is going on. Thanks Liz :)

figurative work for 2011

all Riverbank pieces, work in progress

and some Small Figures

January: mono prints

So my amazing friends HMcD, KJT and GG at the studio got themselves a brand new printing press and I got to try it out this weekend. First prints ever, on a press anyway. Bloody beginner that I am, they had to explain just about everything. And then I did it. L O V E I T!!! Thank you, my lovely friends.

note to self: more experiments when nobody is around and try not to mess up EVERYTHING this time.
