Folk this, folk that, go and folk yourself. Runs a printmaking business with his printmaker wife.

We had a lovely conversation with an admirer, yesterday, and it put a massive spring in our steps. We’re just a couple, doing this from the living room of a council house in rural Aberdeenshire, trying to never go back on the dole. It’s really humbling, knowing that people love what we’re doing.

Looking at last month’s sales and this little beauty was July’s best seller, by a country mile. We’ve never had a print as popular as our Wee Fox. Full of detail, it’s got a beautiful Folk Art charm and it’s only a tenner. If you’ve ever liked anything that I’ve posted, you should go for this one.

We’re actually properly celebrating tonight. My nephew died, a few years ago, when he was only 11. Heart defect. We all got tested and most of the guys had the gene mutation. His big sister just found out she’s having a boy and it’s due around Owen’s birthday. My youngest brother is over the moon.

Chilling after an excellent weekend in Portsoy. Things are going really well just now, we’re loving what we’re doing. After 20 odd years on the dole, we’re finally doing something that we always wanted to do and we’re fucking smashing it.
