‘Argyll House’ 1/1 Woodcut & Monoprint (£NFS) There are now 14 Conservation Areas in the borough of Southend-on-Sea. One of which is ‘The Leas’ which faces the Thames Estuary and retains many of the original buildings including Argyll House. This Art Deco building constructed in 1937 was built on what was previously known as ‘The Slopes’ in around 1909. . . . . . #southend #southendonsea #westcliff #westcliffonsea #argyllhouse #argyll #theslopes #printmakersofinstagram #monoprint #woodcut #experimentalprintmaking #drawingprocess #artdeco #architecture #seaside #thamesestuary #estuary #essexhouse #essex #historicalbuilding
‘Shore Rooftops’ 2019 Linocut & digital print 1/1. . This series of one off lino and woodcuts are inspired by ’The Shore’ apartments on Westcliff seafront and its surroundings. Living in close proximity to the building I am constantly engaged in the shapes it creates against an ever-changing sky, as both the new and old architecture are juxtaposed. . . . . #westcliff #lino #linocut #digitallinocut #geometry #brutalism #printmakersofinstagram #architecturaldetail #contemporaryart #process #contemporaryprocess #contemporaryprintmakers #constructivismo #victoriasills #theshore #westcliffonsea #theleas #rooftops #drawingbuildings #modernarchitect #modernshapes

‘The Shore & Leas’ print, shortlisted for this year’s @royalacademyarts Summer Exhibition, is a recent lino cut & digital composition. ‘The Shore’ is a large development of contemporary luxury apartments situated on Westcliff seafront and looks across the Thames Estuary. This modern structure has been built adjacent to a row of Edwardian houses that are located within the ‘The Leas’, a conservation area which encompasses buildings dating back to 1895. With both of these buildings as my neighbours, I am constantly engaged in the shapes created against an ever-changing sky, as the old and new are juxtaposed and begin to merge together. In order to explore this idea, I have fused both traditional and modern techniques to create my own representation of history and modernity coming together in unison. . . . . #theshore #lino #linocut #architectural_design #digital_art #brutalismo #printmakers #southendseafront #contemporaryart #leigharttrail #contemporaryprintmaking #constructivism #victoriasills #theshore #westcliffonsea #theleas #rooftops

Really pleased to have sold this 1/1 Linocut with chine-collé entitled ‘Shore Rooftops II’, hope the new owner enjoys it in their home. I always struggle to part with work, not the best way to be when you’re an artist! I do have more colourways of this print available which can be framed like this one pictured. Feel free to DM me or ask @puddleandgoose if you’re local to the @leigharttrail . . . . . #leigharttrail #lino #linocut #chinecollé #chinecolle #brutalism #printmakersofinstagram #arttrail #contemporaryart #contemporaryprintmaking #constructivism #victoriasills #theshore #westcliffonsea #theleas #rooftops #thursdaytreat #thursdayvibes
‘Man sitting on bench’, ‘Very tiny man with sunglasses’ & ‘Tennis man sitting’ (such creative titles?!) Framed pencil drawings ✏️ still available as open edition prints £10 each @puddleandgoose @leigharttrail . . Each drawing in this series is around the size of a little finger and has been drawn in a limited amount of time. These images not only celebrate the raw honesty of a pencil line, but they aim to capture a single person who could have easily been overlooked in a busy crowd, giving the viewer time to slow down and think a bit more about that person. . . . . #pencildrawing #victoriasills #lat #LAT19 #leighonsea #instadraws #linedrawing #tinyman #nobiggerthanmyfinger #framedartwork #framedartprimts #esoa #honestdrawing #rawartists #rawdraw #drawingaday #drawingadaychallenge #drawingsketch #quicksketch #quickdrawing
