For #WorldOceanDay I thought I would share a print with both a vertebrate and invertebrate ocean species. This linocut and gel plate print shows the humpback whale swimming above and a close up of the whale below with six Coronula diadema barnacles.

The Coronula diadema name comes from its barrel and crown-like shape, which can grow to 5 cm (2”) tall and 6 cm (2.4”) in diameter.

It’s my Improbability of Puffins.

I love this term of venery for puffins (who are indeed improbable looking sea birds). It’s part of my series of prints of groups of animals and the weird and wonderful collective nouns to describe them.

Hi #fediverse, I'm stuck.media and happy to be here - the place for knowledgeable malcontents, people of action & passion who thrive without the corporate teat.

I'm an indie #printmaker on the east coast of #TurtleIsland, so-called #canada. I make #stickers #posters #decals and more. I wish it weren't so, but the times call for drastic measures, thus my output focuses primarily on #antiCapitalism #antiColonialism #community #solidarity #resistance #transRights and #climateCrisis.

It's time to fight back. I'm glad to be here. We are not alone.

Feel free to say hi, I'm #friendly.

April 25 is #WorldPenguinDay so enjoy some Adélie penguins! ⠀
⠀
⠀
This handsome couple, two Adélie penguins (Pygoscelis adeliae), common to all the Antarctic coasts, are hand printed in black ink with a hint of orange on white Japanese kozo (or mulberry) paper. Each print is 12.5” by 9.25” (31.8 cm by 23.5cm). Adélie penguins are the most widely spread and southernly penguins (along with the Emperor penguins).⠀

Je cherche toujours l'originalité et me confronte parfois aux limites de mes compétences. Et finalement, comme souvent, le simple plaît et j'en suis également satisfaite. Je retourne réfléchir à de l'original...

Bienvenue sur ma page !

Le temps de me faire la main sur cette nouvelle plateforme, je commence par partager avec vous quelques tampons personnalisés gravés à la main. ("Créatrice de tampons personnalisés gravés à la main" est une de mes deux activités professionnelles mais c'est pas que ça).

After I did the Cover Story range, I then made this "Farm Yarns" range. These are the cushions. I also did a lampshade and a tea towel.

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.

Some of my Running Hare prints are on their way to the lovely Saltbox Gallery in Yorkshire.

Yes, some of my open edition prints are available wholesale.

Happy Groundhog Day! I am a fan of the absurdity of weather prognosticating rodents and celebrate Groundhog Day with my thermochromic linocut. The shadow is visible if the ambient temperature is <30°C and disappears when >30°C (and it’s a safe bet winter is over or you are overheating your home. So I argue my print is as dependable as any celebrity rodent! The reaction is reversible so

So here's another big print of mine which I finished editioning just before Christmas, it's of Mevagissey Harbour.

It is a six colour screenprint.

The series of Chinese Zodiac linocuts was one of my first print series. Happy Chinese New Year! It’s the Year of the Snake.

The character is for snake of course.

So here's another print I did of somewhere in Cornwall, this is Coverack.

It is a two colour linocut and was one of my most successful prints.

Definitely inspired by the amazing work of Bryan Angus.

Here's the finished St. Ives print. I actually got a few good ones!

I need to work out if I need to print any more.

Happy New Year 2025! I feel some trepidation but hope for a good year.

This linocut shows how I imagine the great white stork of European folklore, who carries babies to new parents.

The ancient stork-the-baby-bringer legend was made popular by Hans Christian Anderson’s story called ‘The Storks’. 1/2
