A Happy New Year to you. Blwyddyn Newydd Dda i chi. Here’s my latest Mari Lwyd, a linocut with chine collé using the foil wrapping of the very popular (in the UK) Tunnock’s Tea Cakes. I like the way the stripes of the foil interact with the stripeyness of Mari’s ribbons. She’s a little early, as her night is January 13th, Hen Galan, but that’s a Welsh tradition so I’m using her to greet the world today, according to the modern calendar 😀
I’ve had a bit of a blog holiday over Christmas, trying to have a rest, but back to normal now for 2024.
