Itching to get going and a little frustrated by the snow, the school has been closed and the not getting into work didn’t bother me as much as the not getting into my studio. Yesterday however my partner took the kids sledging and gave me a couple of hours up there. I managed to take a proof print off the lino I had been cutting but it needs more work (didn’t get as much cutting as I had hoped to but hey ho that’s Christmas).
So I decided to do a monotype I had been planning. At last some satisfaction messy painty, colour, summer colours!. I was having fun but I over ran, the family came back and I lost my flow a little pleading with my 4 year old that he could watch but please don’t touch…..he just couldn’t help it. I cleaned him up and managed to finish my print I think I was quite pleased with it…so a good start.
