If anyone is in the rather beautiful area of Ashbourne in the Peak District, you might like to visit this: https://t.co/w0roFH67vV

I have added another of my drawing books to my YouTube channel and added it to my website ( https://t.co/IH2mrZmOnk). Mostly ink drawings in Cornwall made in the summer of 2018. Hope you like them. https://t.co/vNFjYoDF8F

Difficult to get a good photograph of this. Each small image is 60 x 40mm, but I think it comes across okay. It was meant to be focussing on the composition of the paintings rather than the content and annoyingly one missed off a "chunk".

"Sea Grief" multiblock reduction linocut. The stormy clouds have quite an embossed quality (they weren't embossed) but are a nice contrast to the other flat clouds. Again the rain adds a little depth and interest.

An in situ A5 ink and pencil drawing of trees in Rugby. I imagine Rugby people may know them. #rdawing #inkdrawing #sketchart

For your diary and as a heads-up I will have a few pieces in this very eclectic mix of work from the @drawingsocietyuk on the edge of the Peak District, a lovely place to visit. @courtneygallery50 #drawing #drawingexhibition #peakdistrict

"The fate of Phaeton" a multi-block, reduction linocut. Yet again an excuse to look at varying types of graphic imagery, texture and description. I added the basic storyline and a detail. Soon to be added to my website. #linocut #greekmyth #printmaking #reliefprintmaking

"To Knossos" multi-block reduction linout. Yet another of my excuses to do whatever I feel like, then give it a title which sets a story. The original idea was to look at three different ways to describe the three elements, land, water and sky. #seascape #printmaking #linocut

I really like this description of painting, which I think works for printmaking as well.

Upcoming show at Art at the Alex of recent linocuts that all have water in them, somewhere. Check their site for times.

The idea for this linocut came, not only from older prints, but perhaps more from a painting made many years earlier. The intention was recreating the painterly qualities. As is usual that fell by the wayside and the result is quite different from the painting.

Some of the figure drawings made last night grouped into one. There were a few others, but the same poses. All with Derwent Drawing pencils. @derwentpencils
