"The World Has Moved Darkly" The 23rd step in a 23 step process. Everything in its right place. The book is ending. A magician grows, Elspeth is divided and the sky falls. An ermine (because Lyra, dust and daemons) is imbued with a double-meaning, one half of which is my secret, the other half is that you are still asleep. The stage has been set for a proper play. Everything is new. Wake up: Show the world the dream you had. . . . . . . . . . #printspotters #printmaking #printisntdead #risoprinting #risograph #hisdarkmaterials #ermine #magick #twentythree #jungi #alchemy #instaart #individuation #radiohead #animaldrawings https://www.instagram.com/p/BtQknGgDstc/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8434s6f6d6c7

"The Unexamined Failure" The hand is always watching (as one of my favourite comics told me). The framework is held together by Memory as the next stage is rolled for and the enantiodromiatic spell finally starts to begin to end again. Elspeth and twin foxes watch from the wings, crossing fingers, knowing precisely how chance works. . . . . . . . . . . . . #risoprinting #risography #printisntdead #printspotters #printmaking #bookmaking #holodeck #birminghamartist #lewesherriot #traditionalillustration #handdrawn #handcraft #flexmentallo #thefilth #jeffbuckley #penandinkdrawing #twentythree #artandmusic (at Lickey Hills) https://www.instagram.com/p/BtN9UPZjtFx/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x6kq0yya97w6

"The Unconditional Knot" Destruction and creation are two sides of the same moment. The pure blank page, obliterated and changed beyond repair by your drawing. Or maybe you set it free by making it into something unique that exists nowhere else. Both forces are forever tied to each other, in a knot. As Agnys begins to destroy what remains of the waking world, Elspeth observes, ready for what comes next. *** yes that is supposed to remind you of the Bullring *** Also, I cannot emphasise how much I owe to @holodeckbirmingham for how these risoprints and the book turned out. Joseph is a perpetual wizard. 💕 . . . . . . . . . . . #printspotters #printisntdead #printmaking #artsandcraftsmovement #naturedrawing #bullringbirmingham #octopus #risography #risoprinting #risoprints #bookmaking #lewesherriot #sorceress #wizardry #twentythree #birminghamartist #ancientruins #modernruins #chronotrigger https://www.instagram.com/p/BtLowwVj7ry/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1x3xhi5aia5x7

"The Throes Of Circumstance and Magick" The Knight of the Fifth Son returns safe and sound, plucked from earlier in the book, and is placed at the end of sleep ready to recieve the dreamer. She travels home via paper as the May Orb vanishes into fog. . . . . . . . . . . . #handdrawn #risoprinting #risography #printshop #printspotters #traditionalillustration #alchemy #botany #printmaking #individuation #psychedelicart #lewesherriot #frasier #lightanddarkness https://www.instagram.com/p/BtJ8Tz1jPOB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=2c7yj8om3gcf

"The Lord Of Lost Numbers Rising" If I was a drawing, the symbol of the hand would be rather significant to me. A holy symbol representing part of my creator. It's the machina that crafts the imaginary world, the vessel that delivers it's cast to the play. The lord of things not yet made. Our heroine here is currently sleeping, exhausted from her adventures she conjures a new dream. While she sleeps, a vigil forms. *** I still have some A3 giclee prints of this one available in my store, link in bio! . . . . . . . . . #risoprinting #risograph #risography #printshop #instaart #magick #twentythree #printspotters #printmaking #traditionalillustration #handdrawn #hand #waterfalls #artnouveau #birminghamuk #anima #jungian #carljung #alchemy #cerpintaxt https://www.instagram.com/p/BtIua7IDd6L/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=3g278w4iiv5r

"The Spherical Ribbon Complex" Thought and memory collide with math at the ruins. Here is Nemo astride a cosmic jellyfish copying the techniques of Odin by having two ravens to collect and organise information. However, a new element is about to be caught and added to the system in the form of the Egyptian Maus. 3 mininauts are about to capture Intuition. . . . . . . . . . . #norsemythology #vikings #egyptian #instaart #twentythree #enigma #risoprinting #printmaking #printspotters #printisnotdead #illustratorsofinstagram #psychedelicart #fromsoftware #miyazaki https://www.instagram.com/p/BtG1i28DDyg/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=je6dp29s7p94

"The Spectrum Shifts, The Hex Remains" The same things keep happening over and over and over again. There is something inherently strange with the system. Here is one of the very oldest Lords of Anomaly, sat on their throne giving Elspeth the key to escaping cycles, hexes and loops. Necessary equipment. *** I had so much fun drawing this one. I actually used Minecraft to make a big floating chair for reference because I wanted it to look a certain way, simple and fundamental, and from a certain angle. Also made me think of Akira's stone throne. 😎 . . . . . . . . #magick #flowing #instaart #picoftheday #twentythree #illustratorsofinstagram #illustrator #printspotters #printisntdead #minecraft #risoprinting #printmaking #holodeckbirmingham #lewesherriot #akira #domu #notch https://www.instagram.com/p/BtGlWktDQzr/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=epb55cxwb0pq

The Finishing Touch.  “Before me things create were none, save things Eternal, and eternal I endure. All hope abandon ye who enter here. Such characters in colour dim I mark'd Over a portal's lofty arch inscrib'd: Whereat I thus: Master, these words import “

‘The Moon Accessed A Memory’ or ‘the ghost of electricity had a boon’. these were the moraines we conquered, steeped in blank conjuring wisdom teeth, blinkered by the demands of a petrified forest we dreamed of earlier.  our cousin the wolf is leaping across the night sky, watching us make our worst mistakes and weeping for the trees that fall from the planet. cA 76 / /
