Have had a very busy couple of weeks, filled the kiln to bursting with ceramics, then got a cold and stayed at home drinking copious amounts of tea and eating biscuits, and finished off another paper cut stencil, which will be made into a screen print. It's an A-Z of the animal kingdom. I've tried to choose a mix of well known and slightly obscure creature. My favorite letter to do was M, where I chose Manatee, Mantis (praying) and Macaw. I'll print it at London Print Studios in September.
After finishing the stencil, I was clearing up and ended up playing around with the off cuts, which I feel have loads of potential...not quite sure how yet, but I can't bring myself to throw them out! I concentrate so much on the positive stencil image while I'm creating it that I forget about the negative by-product images until it's time to sweep them up....
