Friday Catch up - 20th June 2025


Inktense blocks and pencils on fabric.
I'm afraid I don't have anything for the Doodlewash prompts this week, I've actually been gardening [a little] and sewing for the hare among other things.


Gelli Print Book

I used metallic paints on the left page. The birds I cut on the MKN cutting machine.
The pears etc is a drawing I collaged onto a gelli print page.

I used a page from a magazine to get the print on the right hand side [blue/pink]

Some more magazine transfers
Left - the top leaf with text was a rough cut out
Right - This is not a gelli print, it's painted and the gold circles are from such things as chocolates etc. All the little 'tree' texts were found in a magazine.

Another view of the row of houses shown last time at Kendal
Burton-in-Lonsdale - A window seat in the bedroom of the cottage I was staying in.
In the same cottage there was a window on the stairs looking down into the dining area of the kitchen.
Seats among the other antiques and salvage at Ingleton
A lot of bluebells grow in my garden

Have a good week, see you in three.

  5. What intensely blue the eyes are in your portraits. The people are really full of life.
    I like playing 'I Spy' when I look at your gelli prints, and admire you for recycling metallic cups for pralines - they make great flowers.
