“Life is short. That’s all there is to say. Get what you can from the present—thoughtfully, justly. Unrestrained moderation.” - Marcus Aurelius

I love the paradox in this quotation, unrestrained moderation is a great motto to live by! Have a lovely Saturday!

At the risk of becoming an irrelevant hermit I thought it might be time to make my yearly social media update. If you like this post I might do it again, who knows!

Last year I had the special privilege of getting to illustrate one of the classics of stoic philosophy in this lovely edition of Meditations by UniPress books.

Finding compositions that suited the quotes, especially the more abstract and metaphysical ones was at times headache inducing, but with stoic advice literally staring me in the face I persevered and I’m really pleased with the way these turned out!

I’m really happy with this piece I created for Washington Post’s Book World section, reviewing ‘Living on Earth’ by Peter Godfrey-Smith!

I have long been fascinated with the story of how life on earth came to be and enamoured by the beauty and mystery of it all so this was really a joy. Thanks very much to art director for the opportunity.

This is not a linocut but another of my li-NO-CUTs, digital illustrations. I think I’ll be making an actual linocut of this one though 😉

This month I’m exhibiting some of my work at cafe! Feel free to drop in to see them and have a cup of tea. No need to pay and go round the gardens if you’re just going to the cafe, but the are beautiful and definitely worth a visit!

Birch Trees - reduction linocut print 2022.

I haven’t posted much on here because life has felt like one big plate spinning extravaganza and it never felt like the right time to share anything I’ve been working on. I love to speak to people about my work in person but I have a lot of doubts about social media. I think it has its place but I’m figuring out how I could use it more intentionally because most of the time it does not ‘spark joy’ for me. I have a lot to say about art and other things but instagram or whatever this new threads thing is doesn’t really seem like the right place. It’s noisy and we are encouraged to obsess over ourselves and our feelings. Is anyone else fed up? If you do follow me, what sort of things are you interested in seeing or reading about from me and why?
