DECEMBER 2022 SHOP
(UK only I'm afraid - the shop is timed to coincide with Royal Mail's recommended posting dates to arrive by 23rd December. If you're elsewhere in the world and would like to buy my work, please feel free to contact me) * On this page are flat prints at standard UK frame sizes. (Some of my other work does not easily fit a pre-existing format but all the work on this page will fit commercially available frames.) Suitable frames are linked in each print description - please note these are just examples, not recommendations. All prints come unframed. Each image below links to a full explanation of the work and/or a larger image. * The shop is open until the end of Sunday 18th December. Orders will ship twice: Friday 16th December and Monday 19th December, in the sequence they are received, so the earlier the better given the potential unreliability of post at this time of years and the essential ongoing strike action. Also, there are limited numbers of some prints. * 50% of all income will be donated to Shelter's current campaign to address child homelessness. Read more here. (This is the fourth fundraiser I've run, following previous donations to Todmorden Food Bank (in the town where I live), Reclaim (amplifying opportunities for young people from working class backgrounds) and Refugee Action's programme of support for arrivals from Afghanistan in Autumn 2021. Your orders are always much appreciated by me but, more importantly, by these organisations and the people on whose behalf they work. * All orders receive a hand-printed signed appreciation postcard to acknowledge your donation. * Prices do not include shipping. Please add shipping to your cart from the two options below/right: £6 or £12. |

Please note: if you select the cheaper option and your order is over £50, I won't be able to claim any more than £50 compensation for you in the event of loss or damage. * Card payments are processed securely via Paypal.
