I thought I'd show you my handprinted limited edition cushions that are now in my online shop. The design derives fromm original linocut print 'By the Bridge'. I have silkscreen printed the fabric and sewn the cushions with matching piping myself.

Q is for Quarantine from my Folk Horror Alphabet.

‘Quarantine’ (2018) is a wonderful folk horror tinged stop motion film ‘a post Brexit pagan dance fantasy about a troupe of Morris-dancing badgers…’

Available to watch on the BFI website.

This fairly new print - Sir Phillip- inspired by the delicious Black Phillip from The Witch, is now up on my website. Very very happy with this one.

A view looking down on a group of families surrounding a lit bonfire. Almost all the illumination in the picture comes from the bonfire and the contrast is warm and striking

Today’s carve: I had to revise the leaping fox I made a few weeks back so he’d fit on my garland flags. Working with a winter woodland theme. Now with 100% more movement!

Surreal artwork in sepia and black of a bare landscape. A road leads into the distance in the middle. Above the horizon what looks like a giant eye in place of the Sun rises with beams coming out.

Boris Artzybasheff, a Ukrainian illustrator who immigrated to the US in 1919, was known for florid, grotesque explorations of surrealistic anthropomorphism, combining human and machine into fearsome, laboring hulks of metal & flesh.

These illustrations are from “Machinalia.”

#historyofillustration
A massive anthropomorphized sheet metal press, forcing steel into shape under enormous, wrought hands A white-hot metal billet being picked up by a hook-billed lift with threatening eyes. The covers for the heat sinks are flat, impassive salamanders with distorted, contented, human faces. A huge, horse-like bucket with a rolling human eye and scowling mouth offloads sparking hot molten metal into a mold in a long line of other molds, all of which have cartoonish human faces and human feet. They appear afraid and pained in anticipation, and the mold being poured into cries out Molten metal being poured down a human-shaped funnel’s back into a furnace with a gaping mouth human and staring eyes. The bucket pouring the metal is devised like a smiling man’s head, with hands gripping and twisting its ears to let the molten cargo pour down its nose.

“When black cats prowl and pumpkins gleam, may luck be yours on Halloween.”

Happy #Halloween all 🎃

🎨 'Jack Jill and Jol' by Margaryta Yermolayeva
Painting of a Halloween scene at night. In the foreground are three black cats, one dressed as a witch, walking on their hind legs and holding pumpkins with carved faces on. In the background are trees with orange leaves. To the left is a large spooky house and in front of it a field with a scarecrow in, and a fence round the field with a crow sitting on it and two more carved pumpkins. On the right is a graveyard with numerous tombstones. Behind it all is a huge yellow Moon with a witch on a broomstick flying in front. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/1212710399/5x7-jack-jill-and-jol-ryta-art-halloween
