LINOCUT PRINTS AND ILLUSTRATED RECIPES
I am a printmaker who loves to cook. I enjoy exploring markets, especially for food. When I see a particularly beautiful bunch of onions I am equally inspired to rustle up a soup as to draw it.
To create my textile designs, I make lino cut prints of individual ingredients and combine them into complete recipes. These are screen printed in the UK on quality organic cotton products. The cooking instructions come on the packaging of each product!
My '12 Days of Christmas' linocuts as a repeating pattern on wrapping paper, printed on quality A2 sized 90gsm paper with a mat finish
PLEASE NOTE - Wrapping paper will be sent losely folded in an A4 envelope, if you would like it sent in a tube please select PREMIUM under Delivery optionsat the checkout
The design depicts my humorous take on the traditional Christmas song where I challenged myself to fit each of the twelve presents given by ‘my true love’ into a square lino cut print. This became increasingly challenging as the presents mounted up. One partridge was simple sitting in it's pear tree, two turtle doves as well, in fact all the way up to eight maids a milking which was the biggest challenge. How to fit all eight maids and their cows in? They must have their cows or they would not be milking - as you can see I came up with a genius solution!
After finishing all 12 prints I made a Christmas tea towel which has been a consistent seasonal best seller for the last few years along with my set of 12 greetings cards (one for each day) and one large card of the whole design.
My best-selling Fish Soup design on this super handy pot holder.
Organic cotton, 20cm x 20cm with a pocket on the back and hanging loop. Well padded for good heat protection whether for your hand or as a mat to stand a hot pot on.
Special returning price; £11.95 or a pair for £21.95!
Each one of these prints is unique, a monoprint image in the style of my house portraits with added typography in the form of letterpress printing. I have a lovely collection of old wooden letterpress blocks which I have used to add an extra dimension to these cityscapes.
This is just a selection, please contact me if you are interested in commisioning a particular area, street or landmark in this style - even your house portrait!
Or as AI might put it...
Discover the charm of London through playful monoprints combined with crisp letterpress details. Each piece captures the city's iconic skyline with a unique, artistic twist, perfect for adding a splash of urban whimsy to your space. Celebrate London’s vibrant energy in a fun and creative way!
Thank you for my lovely tea towels, oven gloves and Aga covers. I love your attention to detail by putting small hooks on the Aga covers to attach to the lids so they do not move when opened. I am really impressed by the quality of your products and the originality of your designs. Will definitely be buying more.

This towel came with a recipe card which I can’t wait to try. The towel itself exceeded my expectations. The artwork is stunning and the towel itself is of very high quality.
