264 Flamingo Silhouette II - lino print

This is based on my own observations of flamingos from Saturdays visit to slimbridge wetlands and a quick look at Aubudon's print of the flamingo.

260 Flamingo - coloured pencil

I am planning a series of flamingo prints this week following a visit to slimbridge wetlands yesterday where they have six different types of flamingo. This fellow is tucked up, possibly asleep.

259 Flamingo - pencil

I have spent the afternoon with flamingos and nephews, here is a flamingo!

258 Rucksack - pencil

Says it all doesn't it a rucksack in the summertime!

257 Fence - monoprint

Apologies if you were expecting another lino print of a cotswold place. I had a minor accident, I managed to burn my finger on a blistering hot countersink bit (don't ask) whilst building my fence, hence today's picture. I might get back to that lino series another time but I didn't trust my left hand to hold the lino while I wielded a sharp tool in my right, that would have been like asking for a trip to A & E!

256 Broadway Tower - Linoprint

This is the next installment of your virtual trip around the Cotswolds here is broadway tower which is in ...well... Broadway!

255 Pittville Pump rooms - Linoprint

Something strange happened yesterday and there was no post but I distinctly remember writing Pittville pump rooms....anyway here is yesterday's today's to follow :).

254 Gloucester Docks - lino print

I spent an hour wandering aimlessly around gloucester docks today, thanks to the lady who gave me her parking ticket before she left. I thought I should commemorate the visit with a little print. 

253 Ice Lolly - lino print

It might not look like it but this is my most complicated print to date. Four seperate plates are needed to create the various coloured versions. What fun eh?

252 Ice lolly III - lino print

Again, a very rainy day to be making prints of lollipops. It has warmed me up a treat though. Today's inspiration comes from the 'Fab' lolly apparently one of the countries favourite lollys,

251 Lolly II - Linoprint

Mmm it has got less sunny since I began these summery prints...
