The sadness of elephants.

At the beautiful Amber Fort near Jaipur we walked up the winding road from the car park, but you could ride on an elephant. I found the idea of the latter quite upsetting, especially as they were loaded with fat tourists and continually being whacked with sticks 😔

That’s a beautiful bit of layering on that print.

In the new year we are heading back to India for our third trip. I have a pile of prints I want to complete when I return with renewed passion for this crazy place. I also can’t wait to bathe my pale face in that glorious winter sunlight.

Follow @trevormwilson.bsky.social to join the journey.

Winter Solstice - Etching #10 of 15 - Fiona Wilson Fine Art Winter Solstice - A small etching of a bare tree in moonlight created in response to the longest day of the year. An edition of 15 were hand printed in Prussian blue ink

I found this little treasure in the archive whilst tidying up. It’s an original etching printed by my own fair hands and I have only a few left out of the edition of 15. I popped one in my online shop to celebrate the #wintersolstice

That’s a good one. Not always easy but worth the effort.

I need an intervention - or more shows and patrons.
Too much stuff!

Fabulously gothic - and fascinating - you forget that someone had to ‘donate’ the original face.

I loved our trip to Mexico last year for #diadelosmuertos and the photographs taken by my husband just take me right back there.

If anyone here is an #artist, or interested in #art, take a look at my wife @fionawilsonart.bsky.social who has just joined Bluesky. She's a full time painter and #printmaker working from her studio in Glasgow.

This week I started a month of exploring #printmaking, starting with #etching. I am enjoying developing this old steel plate and trying out my new #indigoblue ink from Hawthorn Printmakers.
