My notes tell me I did this on the last day of term, meaning that I’ve been going to print making classes for two years.
I think I may have got a little bit better over time and I’ve certainly settled into a bit of a style with my Lino flowers, and I like to dabble elsewhere.
I’m hardly a grand master though, preferring a simple design and relatively high turnover rate to produce what I have been calling ‘everyday art’.
I took a picture halfway through painting this design, in case I made a mistake, and it has a certain charm of its own.
