I currently have an exhibition at Grinneabhat in Bragar on the west side of Lewis. This is a lovely gallery which overlooks the moorland.
My cards, prints and calendars are available at EMPTY HOUSE TRADERS , SANDWICK BAY LIVING, AN LANNTAIR in Stornoway, TAIGH CHEARSABHAIG in North Uist, ZERO WASTE Moreton in Devon and at GINGKO GALLERY in Orkney. You can also buy them directly from me by heading to the SHOP page
,
New work includes - monoprinting, relief printing, blind embossing, intaglio inking and print collages.
My hand-made books are an ongoing project and I have added Eco-printing to the range of techniques that I am using for the covers.
Teaching printmaking is a passion and I have been doing evening classes and online workshops at An Lanntair, monthly workshops in Lews Castle grounds and also individual and small group sessions in my studio.
A book on printmaking is on the cards. It will be looking at experimenting with different printmaking methods and will hopefully inspire more experienced printmakers too. WATCH THIS SPACE!

ISLAND ART for GIVING
Another fundraising exhibition is scheduled for 2023
I will be contacting our Island artists in the Autumn for donations of postcard sized original artwork. Talla na Mara Gallery will again host the exhibition in June next year.
There will also be an online gallery of the art work so it is accessible to all.
