some of the In February 2018 Sarah Furby and I were lucky enough to engage in a residency in the Red Caravan in Forres. We stayed in the Red caravan and drove around the area sketching plein aire watercolours. We then went back to the Orchard studios in Forres and made collagraph plates and printed them on my wee xcut xpress - have press can travel. The next 5 images are prints I made in that fortnight.

This print came from the trip I made in September 2017 up the East and across the North coast of Scotland. I love rock formations and this one just caught my eye. Whilst I was sketching it there was an downpour - and it washed all my watercolour off my sketch (I use gesso covered paper because I like the way I can move paint around on it). I was soaked - but I drove back into Cullen and rewarded myself with a great big bowl of Cullen Skink - nyum.

Sarah and I visited Randolph's Leap. This is the third print I have made from our visit - changing the season. Still not particularly happy with it. I need to go back and work on a different composition. The Red caravan residency was amazing, we are both very grateful to Caroline Inckle for setting it up.
