I'm a medieval unicorn girlie in my heart, but kelpies are juusssttt.... There's something special about a kelpie. #kelpie #linocut #printmaking #scotland #mythical

My youngest niece Emily was diagnosed with CF a couple days before she was born in 2021, and while her care has been a massive undertaking for her parents she is still absolutely hilarious and spicy through it all. She inspired my comic about a mermaid with CF 💜 #cfawareness #cysticfibrosis

My first #printpromptmonday is a King Cheetah, which felt appropriate for the #inmotion this week! 😊 @strangford.bsky.social @printsbythebay.bsky.social and @gemmatrickey.bsky.social pick awesome topics 👍👍❤️ (If you haven't googled King cheetahs check them out!! It's a mutation and it's gorgeous)

Sometimes I feel adventurous and bust out the watercolour paints...they usually intimidate me like crazy but if the stars are aligned it's some of the most fun I ever have making art :) #watercolour #animalart #silly

A watercolour and pencil crayon mini painting of a chickadee dressed up like a chef. The chickadee is wearing round classes, a chef's hat and coat and a yellow kerchief. It's on a blue background and in a gold frame (also painted with pencil crayon details)

A watercolour heron with a scar over its eye, and the heron is wearing a green souwester and scarf. It's raining, and the heron is also in a painted brown frame

A watercolour sea otter wearing rectangular glasses, and a matching yellow plaid bowtie and hat. It's on a green background and inside of a painted yellowish frame

A sketchbook page showing three finished mini watercolor paintings. One features a raccoon wearing a bright orange vest and hat whole holding a wooden push broom. One features a hedgehog wearing a purple pinstripe suit, and one features a goldfish wearing a silver medieval helmet, and the goldfish is spattered in black ink. All three are inside of painted frames.

Printing layer two of three for this one... genuinely not sure if the end product will be worth it 😅 #printmaking #linocut #wip #process

Here's another recent print I created in 2024, this is called Dartmoor and it was a commission for Dartmoor National Park. It features Haytor as well as part of a stone circle, stone wall, old stone bridge, gorse and of course animals. #dartmoor #devon #haytor #printsky #printmaking #printmaker

Finders Keepers This is one mermaid who's seen some stuff. I had a customer tell me she reminded them of Athena, lifting up her helmet and looking super badass...and that made me very happy :D #linocut #lino #printmaking #mermaid #vintage

A linocut print of a mermaid, holding a harpoon and lifting a vintage copper scuba helmet off her head. The mermaid has a scar on her arm and a very intense scowl - she looks like somebody you wouldn't want to cross. The mermaid is printed in black and the helmet is printed in metallic copper ink.

Real pleased with this blue mix I came up with and also real glad I picked raw umber instead of black for the linework. Everything's really gelling well. Will look real nice when I add some colorful leaves I think. #printmaking #linocut #lino

Knightly Gentlemen This print is one of my faves, the block is probably a year and a half hold but it still makes me so happy to print these guys! #linocut #linoblockprint #printmaking #medieval #knights #silly

A linocut print in dark (almost black) red ink, showing three medieval knights carrying a teacup, a teapot and a plate of scones. They're standing in elegant Jane Austen gentlemanly poses

Getting some prep done to make a brand new print. This part is always the most boring... transferring the design to the block...but now I get to start carving so yay! #linocut #blockprinting #linocut #printmaking

A photo of some pieces of lino with drawings of two lions and other shapes around them, ready to be carved into blocks to print!

Hello! :) I'm Katharine - a printmaker and hopefully one day, a creator of children's picture books 🙂 Like a lot of folks here I joined BlueSky to get away from Meta and all the yuck over there. I never used Twitter, so this kind of app is new to me, but I'm excited to get started!
