Today I’ve updated my profile pic to my linocut Today I’ve updated my profile pic to my linocut wombat logo. Linocuts lend themselves to logos. As a designer I know that. But this logo came about by accident. Here’s the story. The wombat image featured in a CD cover design for Special Arrangements, a radio serial by Bill Frew back in 2014. Afterwards, the small lino block hung about the studio until I used it for printmaking demos on open studio weekends, giving visitors a free wombat print. This proved very popular. Eventually my IT guy visited the studio on one of these occasions and suggested it would make a great logo. Thankyou @thatchspace We were updating my website in 2018 so I created a suite of logos to use online, in print publishing and on my market stall. By the end of 2018 the wombat image had found its way onto my greeting cards. Honestly, if I had sat down to brainstorm images for a logo for my business, wombat would not have made the list. After all, wombats are the butt of the lewd Australian joke: eats roots and leaves; (punctuate at your pleasure). Campers know wombats can be responsible for violent tent break ins ( if food is stored in your tent) and there are the popular “Muddleheaded Wombat” books by Ruth Park. These are hardly a bunch of business values I’d like to extol. Still, I think I’ll stick with this because it works.

An exciting collaboration: My linocut, “I want to read but there are pom poms in my head” has been artfully animated by John McGeoch in this short film. Voice by my daughter Alice Grant.
