The Yellowhammer says "You are not alone". . I tho The Yellowhammer says "You are not alone". . I thought I was doing really well last week, I'd had a couple of weeks of highly stressful stuff going on, but I was remaining positive and felt able to cope. This week anxiety hit me like a tonne of bricks; I felt suddenly overwhelmed, useless and ashamed. I was so annoyed at myself for letting it get the better of me again. But I need to remember that the road to better mental health isn't linear. It's OK to feel bad sometimes and I remind myself this won't last forever and I will get back to that good place again. In the meantime I will talk, eat, draw, hug... whatever it is I need to give myself some comfort. . And a reminder that the birdies are always there to keep us company. . I was inspired by @alimacdoodle and her piece for @youarenotalonemurals to make this. . #youarenotaloneart #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #birdillustration #yellowhammer #birdwatching #nature #illustration

Anyone else love making positives for screen print Anyone else love making positives for screen print? The original illustration for this was made on Procreate, but I'm super keen on handmade positives to give that painterly/drawn quality, so I traced the digital image to separate the colours. Took me a fair bit of figuring out how to condense all the different colours I'd used into three layers, but hopefully what I've planned will work 🤞 . I'm booked into @leedsprintworkshop on Saturday, so watch this space for the results! . . . #birdillustration #timelapse #herringgull #seaside #birds #nature #birdwatching #printmaking #screenprint #printprep #positives #handmade #handdrawn #process

I'm at the seaside, so no printing today, but I am booked in for my first print session in about 7 months next weekend @leedsprintworkshop and I'm very excited!
