Bush stairway to heaven
I’ve been meaning to post this linocut for a while. It seems to sum up summer holidays. It’s hard to stay in the studio when our beautiful garden echoes with birdsong. We are trimming grapevines, watering the pot plants and waiting for the fruit to ripen. Our neighbours share their fresh cucumbers.
I met many wonderful people and this grasshopper during the weekend’s food garden event @creative_harvest2019
Tied bunch of dried daffodil stalks that blew into the driveway in yesterday’s big wind
Window, Farm building at Tarwin Lower. The place needs a bit of work but that only adds to the attraction for me. There is a snake in the greenhouse, a tyre swing needing mending, and leggy old geraniums clinging to life in what’s left of the kitchen garden.
16 days into 2019 and stocks are running low on my calendars. If you are quick, they can still be found in my webshop [link in bio], at @campbellstreetemporium in Yarragon, at @creative_harvest2019 garden #3 where I’ll be this weekend. Or at my Warragul Arts Market stall this Saturday morning.... image: rooster mono print from the January page.
Cutting linocuts in a huge food garden as part of @creative_harvest2019 ‘s open garden weekend. Geoff & Leslie’s well designed garden combines fruit trees, berries, veggies in a rural setting bordered by eucalypts and farmland. Open until 4 today if you are nearby and have an afternoon free or swipe for the armchair tour.
The design on this old cabinet door, found in hard rubbish, was used as reference for a linocut when Meredith and Sandra visited the studio for a linocut print day. Swipe to see a couple of photos of them at work.
A collage made from my own linocut prints. This is a detail of the work in progress, with the finished piece being quite large, almost A1. It’s destined for the local Ficifolia Art Show coming up next month.
You can never have too much bunting or coffee*. My stall today . . . *possibly untrue
