Here’s my Mari Lwyd linocut for this year. I cut the block a couple of weeks ago and did some proof prints at the 9-to-90 Creative Community to demonstrate the chine collé technique. But I wanted something different, rather than the usual tissue papers, for this year’s annual print. I went to the latest exhibition at GS Artists on Friday and there was a large plate of Tunnocks Teacakes, which are covered in lovely stripy, shiny foil. So I asked the people there to eat the cakes and give me the foil, and they really stepped up! And I love the effect.
