Rough cut pine - Which I cut a back groove in on the table saw. Mitre jointed. Then I made a corner joint sledge and cut the corner joints to stop the corners separating over time. Trimmed back and sanded.
I finished them with a black stain. Next up will be window mounts etc.

A #cosyfantasy that reminds us that:

'It is our beautiful difference that unites us, not our sameness!'

mybook.to/WJ15IMz
(Only $0.99)

A novel about #neurodivercity. That helped me process and reflect on what it is to be #dyslexic , or indeed different.

Took me ages to find a print company I was happy with, that met my expectations. I chose Prodigi finally
All prints on my site are done by them.
Why:
😍Archive quality papers
🖌️Giclee
🧐Very high detail - so code is clear
♻️All paper based packaging
🫂Amazing customer service

Alexander Way-B @alexanderwayb.bsky.social · 24d

It has been so great to reconnect with being an artist over the last 7 months. Something I NEED to continue!
Really happy to have a home for my current #artwork & hopefully future work: alexanderwayb.co.uk
Why not support my art journey by ordering a print.

Slapstick scenes, dark comedy and surreal urban murders. What more do you need…?

Moz Perkins ⚓️ 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @mozperkins.bsky.social · 28d

This is a tongue in cheek dark comedy thriller that will keep you smiling and cringing in equal measures until it reaches its climax.

Lola is a serial killer on a murder spree who takes advantage of Ernie, a hapless loser with questionable morals.

A stranger’s smile. A misjudgment. A moment in time. Could that be all it takes to rewrite a lifetime?
