Manchester based Graphic Nothing has kindly included some of my prints in his new e-com project.

Some Prints also features work by Stanley Chow and Kate McLelland, with new artists being added weekly. Prints available from a super un-prints-ly [very poor pun] sum of £5. Interestingly, there are currently quite a few music/band themed prints currently on the site: Graphic Nothing’s ‘remixed’ record covers, Serge Gainbourg and some Smiths’ lyrics.

Clockwise from top left: Kate McLelland – ‘Maze of Sparrows’ (screenprint); Graphic Nothing – ‘Mona Lisa remix’ (giclee); Sally Boyle – ‘The Smiths Cross-stitched’ (giclee); Stan Chow – ‘Serge Gainsbourg‘ (giclee).

Just had a framed and mounted sample made of my current A5 size prints as I ‘m planning to offer both print options – framed and mounted or just the print on its own. The latter are currently only available as archival quality prints on watercolour textured paper from From the Wilde and – lo and behold! – they’re included in the site’s Summer Sale!  Peacocks, owls, fawns, fish, Hansel & Gretel, Red Riding Hood – its all there. For everything else that’s currently available in my Folksy and Etsy shops, including the matt silk versions of my prints (just to confuse matters) I’m giving £1 per sale to the DEC Pakistan Flood Appeal until the end of August.

Have had a new sample peacock wall decal printed (finally!) and can’t decide between vivid, near fluorescent new colours (above 1) or more ‘adult-like’ hues of previous version (above 2), bearing in my all previous versions – as far as I know –  have been bought by women for themselves. Advice please! Which would you prefer? Everyone who comments before August 15th will be entered into draw for a Tiger and Jungle sticker set (below) on the 16th.

Have just updated a couple of things on my Etsy and Folksy shops, including a new Red Riding Hood listing – with blonde hair!, and some photos of my new Spanish donkey Summer print.  Looking at them next to each other, I think I must be principally obsessed with the trees. That’s where the work seems to go into.

My Peacock prints are now available on a luxury textured watercolour style paper, crisply printed in fade resistant, archival inks. Am really happy with the results.  Available singly from From the Wilde. Available as as pair on Etsy and Folksy from this evening.

As I’ve been uploading this epic post (of some of my favourite bird designs online) I’ve been listening to the near constant football rattle of a couple of magpies outside. Touch ironic: they’re the only bird i DON’T like. they can’t sing, they can barely fly and they seem to spend most of their time harassing smaller birds and eating their young. talentless bully-boys…

I’ll be here, with more cards and prints than a Paperchase warehouse. The previous fairs have been great. There’s a touch of the vintage bonanza about the whole affair. Catered by The Marvellous Tea Dance Company. And yes, the cakes are indeed Marvellous.

Super duper new peacock prints, available in dollars, pounds and euros

I’ve just uploaded my 2 new peacock prints to my Folksy, Etsy and  Dawanda shops.  The first image shows the actual print layout on the paper.  However,  I can modify the settings on request for different frame sizes. They can be bought separately, or as a pair. I’ll be taking some fotos, just as soon as I’ve bought a pair of matching A4 frames!

Ilkley vintage bazaar is on June 19. Its always a little bit special, since there’s a vintage style tea party thrown in as well (I recommend the Guinness and  chocolate cake with cream cheese icing btw). Here’s the blurb: 1900 to 1980 vintage furniture, fashion, textiles, hats, jewellery, bags, recycled homewares, quilts.
