Fab night at the opening of Linoprint 4 in Whitstable yesterday- do make time to visit if you can, it’s a great show 🧡

Love a test print Friday 🌿🌳

Made some multi block prints in the studio this week. Loving playing with colours and shapes- simpler designs with different techniques. These quieter months allow time to play 🌞🧡

In this exhibition at the end of the week- Linoprint 4 in Whitstable. It features works of a wide array of contemporary relief printmakers, including myself and others: @strangford.bsky.social @matpringle.bsky.social @seanstarwars.bsky.social @lauraboswellprint.bsky.social @ieuanedwards.bsky.social

Picked up some dry prints from the studio today- I’m definitely having a moment with red ink ❤️🍎

Hello Bluesky! Owen Gent here. Not sure if this is a place I'm going to be but thought I'd dip my toe and see how the water is. Very interested to see how other artists and illustrators are finding it. Here's a recent piece 'Wren' Personal Work 2025 #owengent #owengentillustration #illustration

I’m taking part in a charity initiative called Thought Press Project with 100 #printmakers taking part. The theme this year is ‘Sound & Vision’ I struggled initially with this prompt - how to illustrate sound that also fits what I like to make work about? But then this idea took shape and I love it

I get a lot of carving done Sunday mornings. I’m an early esker, getting up in the dark for a few blissful uninterrupted hours spent with my latest blocks. Anyone else like this? #printmakers show me your WIPs

#printmakers show me what’s on your drying rack right now. Here’s mine- brand new print in a few different shades of red. Couldn’t decide which one I liked. Anyone else mix slightly different shades again and again until you find the right one??

Open Studios in Margate this evening at Resort. There’s letterpress, screenprinting, zine making, marbling, films and perhaps most importantly free beer and crisps.

👋 hi there! Printmakers and other assorted artists… what are you working on at the mo? Or what have you just finished? Share a pic if you can… I’m on layer one of a woodcut reduction… look at the texture 🤤 #printmaker #woodcarving #traditionalart #diyart #printmaking #woodcut #linocut

Heading off to visit dear printy friend Harriet Popham who has just had a baby. This pic is a throwback to our collaborative exhibition last summer- ‘Carve Club’ in Bristol. Both @strangford.bsky.social and Gemma Trickey will also have work on show with me at Linoprint 4 at the end of the month 🧡

Look at these gorgeous print colours - these will all be on display later this month as part of Linoprint 4 exhibition in Whitstable. Opens 31st Jan at The Horsebridge arts centre. I’ll be there at the open view drinks on 1st of Feb- are you local? Come say hello and chat printmaking.

Hello! I’m Nicole, a printmaker from Dorset making linocuts about wild women. I make everything by hand, using earthy colours and natural papers. My artwork is rich with feeling and symbolism- as well as joy and hope for the future. I’d love for you to join me here!
