Look who's back! With kid gloves and lots of patience I've managed to work out how to print a new edition of The Ritual I, which seems to be pleasing lots of people. Swipe to see the prints that have finally had a restock (including a second edition of the Tree of Life), all on my website right now.

This is what happens when I try to draw faces, only mildly affronted children emerge. It feels more relevant than I'd like to admit. I guess if drawing tiny disgruntled people is my strength and I’m tapping into some not-so-deep childish behaviour then let's do it, let's do it furious and let's do it in a conical bepompommed bonnet. The Sulk: four colours, one attitude, and is for anyone who has ever needed a dramatic snood moment. #wallart #limitededitionprints #britishartist #linoprint

It feels good to be middle aged and feral. #stickerslaps #vinylstickers #stickerclub #damntheman #vandalism

Joyous Beltane blessings to all from these weirdos celebrating the Celtic bonfire event that is the first day of May. I’ve spent most of the day writing my newsletter - do you want to connect with me about marginalia, the terrible shame of May Day celebrations according to the puritans and hear what rabbit holes I’ve been falling down lately? You can sign up via my profile link. Oh and there is stuff about Fraggle Rock (clap clap) #linocut #bealtaine #firefestival #ritualmagic #blockprint

Spring mornings Light by 5.30am, birdsong coming through the windows, orchards full of blossom and the very rare luxury of sitting still and doing absolutely nothing. And while you’re here, do take a moment to notice the beautiful wallpaper by a local artist @gemmatrickeystudio , filled with apples and Somerset’s orchard beasties, the hunky punks.
