Some monsters are late
Three and a half days until my MA deadline and the monsters are still coming. Witney from Monster Colours is a…

I chose the leftmost one eventually, with assistance – but this is really no time for arriving threefold.
Blood, sweat, giraffes, Christmouse
I thought this project might kill me AND never get done, but here it sort-of is, a handprinted book about giraffes. It’s not how it was meant to be at all (apart from the cover) as I have never done this sort of screen-printing before, drawing onto drafting film to make the positive for the light blue layer, and it kept being under- or over-exposed so it’s all patchy and weird. But, it is some giraffes on some paper and that is something to hand in for my MA, maybe I will have another go after my deadline.
Ooh, in other news, LOAf is now available from Etsy, and is in the window of Foyles, where also our MA show will be from the 4th to the 9th of February. Also, HAPPY CHRISTMOUSE!
It bees that way sometimes
It says it won’t stop raining all day. Good weather for herding fictional giraffes I suppose.
