prayer for peace: etchings printed on handmade paper from Nepal

These are a couple of very special etchings. They are both printed on beautiful handmade paper from Nepal which has a soft natural colour and structure. A friend of ours runs a charity in Nepal and makes yearly visits to Kathmandu. On her recent visit she brought me back a pack of fabulous paper. I featured the etchings themelves a while ago but I wanted to print these special editions because I think the etchings themselves fit well with the qualities of this paper. They are both here and here in my Etsy shop.

we woke up in Narnia this morning!

It's an ice world out there today!

oh baby it's cold outside...

In Tholen this morning the sun was shining brightly and with the snow still on the ground it looked quite magical!

under a blanket of snow

Today we woke up in Tholen (in the Netherlands) under a blanket of snow. The little town looks like a proper winter wonderland. This was the harbour this morning...and our cat, Moeki, didn't much fancy going outside!
