Last Moon Prints.

It’s just two weeks to go until we have to hand in this first project. What Christmas?  

        

    

            

Six of the monoprints, some reworked and with relief printed additions: image size 4 x 6 inches

Over at my main blog Pencil & Leaf I am getting back to regular blogging in the New Year. I will be writing more about the whys and wherefores of  the Moon project and there will be another project coming up.

As Sue said in her last post we are away now until 2015 when Sue will be starting again with another Beautiful Beast.

Meanwhile Happy Christmas to you all.

Happy Christmas!

At this time of year it seems that peace and quiet are hard to come by for us humans but the beautiful beasts just carry on as normal. Keeping warm and finding enough food are their priorities and when you see how people behave in the Christmas sales it makes you wonder how we've got to the top of the food chain!

Thank goodness we have our furry, prickly  and feathered friends to help keep some sense of sanity and although my hedgehog friend should really be fast asleep at this time of year, I can't help imagining him [or her] rooting amongst the leaves for a tasty morsel as the large cool moon rises up behind them.

 

This is the first print on the press rather than a hand printed image and I'm pleased with the result.  There's lots more work to do on the image but as the Christmas cards have now been written and the presents [almost] wrapped, I can turn my thoughts to everyday life in the world of the Beautiful Beasts which is a wonderful place to be when the Christmas madness has taken over the 'real' world.

 

Happy Christmas to anyone who has been kind enough to read our blogs over the year, and we hope you've enjoyed them as much as we have.  We're taking a break for a short while and are thinking about how the blog should progress but in the meantime Happy Christmas to you all and hope you like this hand drawn image inspired by the 'Angel of blessed silence'.........so apt at this time of year!!

 

 

 

 

Best wishes for Christmas and 2015 from Val and Sue
