Macaroons

Macaroons are apparently the 'new cupcakes' so I've been working on a new card design for Phoenix.  In the interest of research I first had to buy some to draw.  Yum!

Open Studios 2011

My first post of 2011!

It was the Open Studios AGM on Sunday and it made me realise that I should really be thinking about new work for the show in July.  My studio will be open the second and third weekends in July and will have the usual mix of limited edition prints and my published cards and wrapping paper.  The above collograph is called 'Indigo Bird' and is from an edition of twenty five hand coloured prints.  I'm planning to do some new large prints, inspired by patterns in fields, so watch this space to see how they turn out.

I'm currently working on new Christmas designs for Phoenix but I'll have to wait until next month to see if anything has been selected.  I'm also working on a Strawberry card to go with the wrap which is number three in their best seller list.  The presents design is number one!
