Long time no see!

I feel like I've been very lazy with my blog recently...part of the reason is because I have stopped my regular screen printing course since it became too expensive and I wasn't enjoying it enough.

Another reason is that I have just been SO busy, with Retreat 4 Your Feet and Muffin Mad!

Business(es) is booming! Lots of new clients for Retreat 4 Your Feet, and a few for Muffin Mad too, so I'm happy with the way things are going. I will try to blog more regularly from now on, so watch this space!

New Look!

After 3 years of having the same logo for Retreat 4 Your Feet I decided we needed a little updating! I hastily called some graphic designer friends after drawing a "logo" and sent that their way. Here's what we came up with...the old, the drawn, and the new!

The Old

New Site, New Business!

I am currently in the process of developing a new business..."Muffin Mad" to go alongside my Reflexology business. Check the site http://www.muffinmad.com/ for more info...

Valentine's Day Card

New thank you cards

These were made with different patterned tapes!

African prints

The final copies of my African screen print. I have done one copy in the original colours and one in the inversion of colours, so the opposite colour on the colour wheel.

Works in progress

I'm working on screenprinting a picture from my African trip. Its a photograph of 3 Masai warriors. I am doing it with a mixture of paper stencils and photographic transfers. The project we are working on is "exploring colour" so i am looking at the colour wheel and printint in the opposite of the original colour...meaning I have to do double paper cuts! It is a work in progress, final stages will be completed next week so have a peek back then!

Retro Cards
