I think this is going to be the start of whole new love affair
I cant wait to get started on learning all the techniques of wood engraving
I thought I would get back into the swing of things by listing some new items on etsy .
I actually made these brooches a little while ago but never got round to listing them in any of my shops so I thought it was about time
The images that are on the brooches are parts of my other linocut prints that didn’t quite work out the way I had planned for instance a smudge of the paper or a fingerprint or just a not perfect print that other parts of the print were perfect so instead of wasting all the paper I thought I would up cycle them into something else a vwalla original art brooches!
If you are interested in any of these items please follow the link to my etsy store where you will find these and many other handprinted letterpress & linocut items
Well we are only 2 days into the new year and the work has already begun
I love the feeling of having something to go ahead with and feeling enthusiastic about getting on with it.
Today I have been updating my wholesale product list for Ruby Victoria Letterpress & Printmaking and I didn’t realise until now how many things I have made over the last couple of months that I have needed to include on my list.
It is a really nice feeling to realised that I have been so productive without really even noticing it .
If you are a business and would like to be emailed a copy please feel free to email me a request I will be more than happy to send one to you for your consideration.
