Career Break - Low Res Scan
I have printed up an edition of 15 prints of ‘Career Break’, and they are for sale at £15 each. A nice fun linocut print for a bargain price, what could be better. They are printed on Somerset White Satin paper and are unmounted.
We spent the day printing at Omega Printmakers in Portsmouth today. It’s a really nice studio with a fantastic Albion Press for relief printing, which is what I was doing.
I spent my time playing with Linocuts of bikes and riders, based on the course of life images I worked out a while back. I started the Lino cutting a few weeks ago at the Badger press and carried on today, printing a series of 15 prints of ‘Career Break’ which I hope to exhibit soon at the Omega Printmakers exhibition. I also developed some linos of me on some other of my lovely bikes.
Here are some photos of the images.

Recently I have mainly been working on making a website for Omega Printmakers in Portsmouth. It is, in my humble view, quite marvellous.
It is at www.omegaprintmakers.co.uk.
Amanda’s Dad and I escaped a children’s party to go and take some photos from the Spinnaker tower. I have been playing with some pictures from mine and this is the result so far.
I have been making a CV and have been moved to create some images that sum up the story of my life, largely because that is much more fun than writing a CV properly.
The large company to which I have whored myself for the last 12 years has observed that the benefits of employing me do not necessarily outweigh the costs. My efficiency as part of the corporate machine is in question, I am worn and unreliable. My role is being re-evaluated. The company is right sizing. They are no doubt going to do this in a pro-active manner and I am confident they will leverage synergies and strategies as and when required. No corner of the English language will remain untrampled in this process.
I have expressed all I have learnt from the corporate factory of dreams in this charming and cheerful picture.
I have been working a bit more on Millenium Angst, trying to give it the look of a double groove vinyl disc.
Don’t talk politics and don’t throw stones. Well I’m briefly doing both. I am scared that today the lovely folks at the BNP are going to reap the benefit of discontent with moats and duckhouses. Please don’t vote for them. They are fascists. I made a nice new logo for them to help them get their policies across clearly and also because I hate them using MY flag to represent their fascist shit.
Has the phrase LOL ever been used to comment on something that was actually funny? I don’t think so. It is an excellent way to provoke violence imho. Don’t get me started on bloody imho!
