keks liiiebt die rosa wanne... //keks lloooves the pink tub...

only 10 days to go...

...and i am working almost non-stop on new things for the walls at winterleuchten! this one features a new linocut of the little robin living in my garden, carefully cut out and pasted to an old piece of wood, which i have painted with thinned oil inks before. i don't know if i can sell this, i like it so much! maybe keep it myself... (original size is app.6x8inches)



and here's yet another cat collage on canvas board. love the color contrasts and structures, the pink pattern is also a linocut print i specially made for use in, well, collages... (original size app.6x6inches)

enjoy your first december days..

time cats

wow, time flies when you are having fun....indeed! its more than a week gone since my last post, so many things happened! my comission print is finished!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YAY!

it came out great, but was SO hard to print. i messed up 50% of all prints with the last block, a pity, but theres no other way to do it. i felt so much pressure while printing and was pretty nervous, too, but needed to stay focused and calm, concentrated and decisive. i tried to work the samurai way - take your decision within seven breaths... and it helped a lot! on tuesday i felt like getting a fever, headache, cold, everything at once. i am used to this kinda "body behaviour" or physical reaction, i usually get real sick two days before opening a show or ,like this time, before submission date.

oh and in the meantime, while the prints were drying, i made some new collages with the black cat, white cat print. i love it! better than the original print....want to do more like these, but have to reprint cats, first. this one is listed in my dawanda shop.

hope you had a nice week, enjoy the rest of the weekend!
