I am a real fan of overprinting, a printmaking technique that allows for quite some creativity and free-wheeling! 'nasturtiums', single original linocut print, A4 - quite some variations on paper available, $110 unframed.

This is 'bol hoofd' (bulb-head), partner to 'tulip head' It's a m/m illustration/ collage work in A4, posted here purely in honour of Nono De Groot, such a dear friend, who had asked me to make a series about flowers, so that we could exhibit together. As I didn't have much trust in my own work anymore back then in 1997 , we unfortunately never did. Well, Nono, it is up here for you and I now!

'tulip head' - my beloved avatar!

work on paper, 3 panels, Indian Ink, some awesome as wax crayons, acrylic - now available and made shortly after we received an S121 notice, calling for immediate evacuation of our property. I'd sneak past the red tape and work in my studio!!! The house was fine (save), it was the hill above that was deemed dangerous. Thank you thank thank you NZ, cause you decided to reinstate the hill so we were able to rebuild. Turbulent times for a single mum with two young boys who was just going through teacher training. Need I say more! Price: under negotiation.

I love this wee illustration, NFS :)

Best illustration assignment ever for the University of Amsterdam and against bullying at the work/place of study..."A NO is a NO"!
