I go through waves where all i want to do is draw! I'm not sure if it would be better to work on one thing at once or if it's ok to have multiple ideas being worked on at the same time... but I find it gives me breathing space between working on the designs #linocut #drawing

Not much printing going on at the moment as I adjust to having this reprobate in my life #puppy

Bandanas! So fun to make something physical and not just a print! #bandana #design

Eeek pretty excited about how my lino print design bandanas have turned out! Need to sort out some proper photos and then they'll be here soon! #bandana #cotton #linoprint

Haven't been that good at posting on here, but here's a few prints from my sea collection. I was feeling quite creatively stuck at the start of the year so decided to give myself a theme and stick to it, and it definitely helped with removing a bit of pressure, and to just enjoy making :) #linoprint

Very pleased with my how riso prints of my rooms turned out. Always a bit risky with so much chance of misalignment! #risograph #linocut

#printpromptmonday this week is Foliage! I'm using sea foliage rather than earth based, mainly because that's all that is occupying my print brain at the moment! I'll stop posting sea things soon I promise. #linocut #linoprint

A temporary and slightly wonky frame for a print I bought in Cambodia. Described as 'temple rubbings' though they aren't actually from one of the temples any more. I probably paid too much for it ($15) but sometimes haggling over something you can afford felt a bit icky. Anyway, I love it.

Been working away for the past month on all things sea themed. It's been quite rewarding to be focused on one theme, but I definitely have ideas for other things now. These are 3 of the small blocks. Hoping to have everything ready to launch on the 3rd April... #linocut #lino #printmakers

A new print! Atlantis fish and chips I love fish and chip shops and I'm not sure why. And seagulls. #linocut #jigsawlino #linoprint

My 70+ mother is headed to a protest. She’s an artist, does a lot of very meticulous still lifes. She texted me that she was worried her sign didn’t look enough like Trump. …Mom.

A sign with a detailed drawing labeled CON MAN which is Very Recognizably Trump, Mom

It wouldn't let me add the board to the last post, but this was the lino print board for the game I made artwork for. Making a circular and never ending board challenged me I will tell you that!! #boardgamedesign

Commissions I've worked on! Including interior companies, Guinness (the most nuts thing ever) and also a Bronte themed board game (yet to exist) which I designed over 60 cards, a board and a box for. ✨️Manifesting more projects✨️ #illustrator #commissionme #printmaker

Bluesky seems like a safe place, so here's a little poem I wrote recently. I'm not a writer, but I do love scribbling. I will make this into a lino comic at some point. Have been feeling the pull back to Ireland get stronger lately, and it seems to get harder every time I go back.

Joining in #printpromptmonday and the theme this week is #inmotion My prints aren't that "motiony" but I can't bloody wait for Spring so I've chosen this print, 'Dancing Bluebells'. An oldie but a goodie. Looking forward to seeing real Bluebells jangling and jiving in the wind. #linocut

Pink! Layer 3 of my coral reef reduction print. Waiting for more white ink to arrive as I want it a little more pale. #reductionprint #linocut #lino

Riso print fruit and veg prints! Made from my original linocut prints, but honestly I was quite sick of hand printing them! #risoprint #riso #illustration

I’m back for another #printpromptmonday with an etching of my (#indoors) cat Freyja from 2008. My work has changed a lot since I did this piece but I still really love it.

Hahaha the #printpromptmonday is too perfect for me! I love creating imaginary rooms based on memories, trips abroad, and people I know. I like researching the symbolism of objects and think a lot about the imaginary person who lives there. So here's a few #interiors #linoprint #risograph

That's the white bits carved out for the first layer of 4! Interesting working at this size, I'm using my bigger tools. #reductionprimt #linocut #linoprint

My biggest lino yet! 40x60cm Hand for scale. This is hopefully going to be a reduction print of a coral reef. My drawing for this is really rough, I'll make up most of the detail as I go along. #linoprint

Might be one of my favourite lino prints I've ever seen! Edward Bawden, an old and young crab print. #edwardbawden

A new fish print! Sort of seeing this as a building block for some other sea themed prints. Going to experiment with colour and second blocks at some point. Added some watercolour to the 2nd one and while I kind of hate the end result it is reminding me of those magic ink kids books! #linoprint

Not going to lie, I've been in a bit of a creative ditch lately. Not so much a lack of ideas, but more an uncertainty about the ideas. I second guess. Does that happen to other people? So I'm working on something quite simple, sometimes the only way out of these ditches is to make anyway. #linocut

Ooh it seems fun on here! Still working out how to find communities to joint? But I'm happy to see so many people on here. Here's another print, this one is a risograph print I made from a reduction print. This one is Ten Past Ten! #risograph #reductionprint #linoprint

Hello Bluesky! I'm Rosanna. I make linoprints. Here is one I made before Christmas. Quarter to Six.

A blue, green, yellow and black linocut print featuring a cottage kitchen with a doorway open to the landscape beyond. A mouse runs across the floor. There are vegetables and baskets on the table.
