A short drive from Petersfield and quite a sight -  thousands & thousands of snowdrops flowering in the sunshine.  Hundreds & hundreds of visitors too unfortunately, but still a nice jaunt on a lovely day.

Not sure if this is a reflection of my creative st Not sure if this is a reflection of my creative streak unleashed or a cry for help!  Anyway, lots of fun was had at this relief printmaking workshop over the last few weeks. 
We were building up layers of pattern using textured wallpaper, lino, paper stencils, bubblewrap and other bits & pieces. Pics 1 to 3 show the stages of the process (in reverse order) to create one of my masterpieces.

Thanks to @jomorleystudio for your expert tuition and encouragement! And to @portsmouthprintmakers for putting on the course. I will be back!
