This piece has taken all week but it is finally complete. I’m rather pleased with the out come. I have a beautiful handmade plywood frame for it too. That will be another piece ready to go to @thegathertarbert at the weekend. . . . . #exhibition #art #abstract #handmadeframe #contrast #colourful #garden #nature #flowers #bold #vintage #cool #ink #bright #happy #positiveart #tarbert #artist #abstractart (at Glenbarr) https://www.instagram.com/p/CR4dOpasQee/?utm_medium=tumblr

Exhibition News: Llanrhaeadr’s Tanat Theatre has had an overhaul! The newly refurbished theatre will be open for the public to come and have a look in August and this will tie in with a National Print Exhibition. Two local artists, Jonny Scarramuzza @jonny_scarramuzza & Ben Clifton @ben_idris_art involved in the #thoughtpressproject - a national charity art project, are bringing an exhibition of the work to Llanrhaeadr on the first weekend of August 2021. Jonny & Ben are 2 of 100 UK printmakers who designed, carved and printed affordable pieces of art on the theme of childhood memories and imagination, to be sold in aid of two charities - Mind, supporting mental health issues and awareness, and Heart Felt Tips, providing art materials and enabling creative learning opportunities for disadvantaged children. All 100 prints will be displayed at the fabulously newly refurbished theatre on Friday 6th August from 6-9 pm and then over the weekend from 10am-1pm. The bar will be open for refreshments throughout and people will be on hand to answer questions about the work on display, the theatre and all of the projects that go on there. A big thanks to Jonny, without whom this exhibition would not be possible! 👏 👏 👏 🌟 ✨ ☺ & thanks to Ben and all the other printmakers for contributing, swipe to see Jonny and Ben hard at work preparing for the exhibition set up and some of the prints that will be featured. While you're waiting for this exhibition, head over to www.thoughtpressproject.shop to buy yourself a print or two! Great prices!!! & FREE UK P&P 📨 . . . . . #artexhibitions #printmaking #linoprint #woodcut #reliefprintmaking #linocutprint #charityfundraising #mindcharity #heartfelttips #ukprintmakers #paperfightart @paper.fight.art https://www.instagram.com/p/CRHm9ynsKqQ/?utm_medium=tumblr

Before ‘Rory’ the dragon was created some rough little sketches were created in preparation for the eventual 3 colour lino print. . . . . #prep #sketches #process #sketchbook #red #dragon #linoprint #sonabeam #cute #thoughtpressproject #postcardart #reddragon #character #art #artist #wales #welshdragon #exhibition @heart_felt_tips #charityexhibition @mindcharity #blockprinting #reliefprinting @ukprintmakers #get_imprinted @paper.fight.art https://www.instagram.com/p/CRHcAcQsY3W/?utm_medium=tumblr

To my surprise the golden pig was eventually inked up and printed successfully. It’s been an awfully long winter for linoprinting at my gaff! . . . . #lino #linoprint #linoprinting #print #ink @cranfieldcolours #gold #pig #animalart #farmyard #yearofthepig #limitededition #get_imprinted @ukprintmakers #womeninprintmaking #ssamember #scotland #studio #inking #block #studiotime #sonabeam #perseverance (at Glenbarr) https://www.instagram.com/p/CQvbLroogoG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Test print with my fantastic etching press and bespoke jig / template. It really does make a difference to the final outcome if you prepare properly. . . . . #prep #wip #print #printing #lino #paper #yorkshireartist #yorkshireart #bbcyorkshire #etchingpress #linoprinting #block #relief #blockprint #printmaker #studiolife #studio #get_imprinted #illustration @ukprintmakers #nature #art #halifax #butterlyworld #manorheathpark

Ideas that may not go where I would like them to.... On a majorly positive note though... I have been selected to be 1 of the 30 artists to take part in the @im_printed print exchange. More info soon. I must catch up with myself whilst deliberating the direction of my submission! . . . #art #mixedmedia #raven #sculptures #paper #yorkshireartist #clay #paint #eyes #black #silver #3d #originalart #oneofakind #sowerbybridge #halifax #calderdale #hebdenbridge #unique #process #artforwellbeing #workshopsforwellbeing

@justacard JUST A CARD, just a book, just a gift - every sale ADDS UP and means the world to independent creative businesses. What do they mean to you?! Our logo says 'I support Independents', it says 'I value creativity, diversity, quality". It says "I'm an artist, maker, independent creative business and I value your support"! Put the logo onto your website, business cards, blogs. Display our free to download posters. The logo is FOR YOU! It's there to help and encourage sales. I designed it when I set up the campaign (@sarahhamiltonprints ) here - The idea is the red bird loosely symbolises a Red Cross - aid, assistance and support. The bird is flying holding a peace symbol - the olive branch, or in this case leaves - symbols of spring, hope and life. Help our bird to fly. PLEASE use our handle @justacard to tell people about this campaign to raise awareness.. We are getting the message across that EVERY sale, however small, is so important to independent businesses. They are the difference between a thriving business or sleepless nights worrying about the future. Small businesses are about passion, creativity and quality. If you agree then please - pass the message on. It's one thing to say 'Support Independents' it's quite another to reach into your pocket and BUY SOMETHING! It is only by saying this over & over again that we're making a difference. Thanks loads for all the HAVE YOU MET support yesterday - so appreciate it. Have a wonderful creative day friends! 😊 😊 😊 #justacard #wemakecollective #makersformakers #wearethemakers #supportthemakers #capturemycraft #sharinghandmadejoy #prettycreativestyle #slowliving_create #buyfolk #prettycreativelife #seekinspirecreate#thenativecreative #handmadeisbest#modernmaker #bestmadehandmade

I'm over the moon to officially announce the start of my lino printing workshops. There are 2 dates confirmed for April and only 5 places left for the 15th. The next available workshop after that will be on Sunday the 29th. The day will be filled with creativity, technique, exploration, quality materials, coffee / tea & biscuits. You will experience printmaking by hand as well as press printing with gorgeous inks in a beautiful studio. Can't wait! All abilities welcome. . . . . #lino #linoprinting #blockprint #printmaker #studiolife #studio #workshop #art #yorkshireartist #yorkshireprintmaker #sowerbybridge #halifax #calderdale #hebdenbridge #printmakingworkshop #learntoprint @ukprintmakers @cranfieldcolours

Great to begin working on the development of this particular bird sculpture again! It's reminding me of Jack black in nacho libre! . . . . #nacholibre @jackblack #sculpture #art #bird #birdart #wrestler #mexicanwrestler #coolas #red #blue #uniqueart #delphianopencall #abstractart
