Linocut Prints




As mentioned in a previous post I have started linocut printing. The red "dancing girl" was my first attempt based on one of my paintings of the same name. The"Armadillo" was next and is the first of a serious of lino prints based on iconic Scottish places. These 2 are limited editions of 100 all signed, numbered and titled. I took them to the gibson street gala and sold quite a few of each and have also sold more since so seem to be  quite popular. Available to buy at my new etsy store http://www.etsy.com/shop/garyboydart Actual Print size is 6" x 4" paper size is roughly 7.5" x 5.5".

Naked Lady Abstract





 New painting just finished.......i think! Laura's been getting on at me to do a new one for the living room wall as I sold our last one at Artfusion. So its up for the moment but might add a few wee bits to it and varnish it. Would like to get it framed (would love to get all my paintings framed if I could afford it!).

Not the best photos as there is a metalic gold paint used which doesn't show up well in the photos.
