This is the reality of being an artist, you have to make your art and that involves day after day of repetitive slog. There’s no getting around it unless you want to go down the A.I./ laser cutting/ digital printing route, and I certainly don’t. So Day 4 of my residency at Urban HQ in Swansea, I carried on carving lino blocks. I’ve been practicing portrait drawing at the life drawings sessions at Swansea Print Workshop and now I’m practicing making the sketches into lino block prints.
