Block prints

I take inspiration from postage stamps, toys, nature, cars, newspaper ads and the comics. Currently I am producing prints using linoleum blocks. I like the strong dense color or black that I can get with block prints. I am interested in a regulated size format. Within the strict confines of a grid I like to experiment with scale, abstraction, representation and narrative, whatever suits my fancy. I set up some rules for a series and then try to exhaust all the possibilities. Initially, the series will be a group of individual images. I often combine images to make non-linear stories or poems. Occasionally I print a small edition, but I mostly perceive the works as mono-prints.
