We are 100 UK printmakers creating prints on the theme of "Bring me Sunshine" inspired by the Morecambe & Wise song, to be sold in aid of two charities - Place 2 Be and Edible Rotherhithe. Place 2 Be helps school children improve their mental health and wellbeing across the UK. Edible Rotherhithe provides creative learning opportunities through gardening and printmaking sessions in schools. For more information about these charities and what they do, please visit

Black and gold 2 plate linoprint in Cranfield colours on A5 Lokta paper by Amie Bell @amiebellprints
I've always been drawn to bees! They're such lovely creatures and I find it fascinating that Honey Bees can make perfect hexagons and that Bumblebees can fly with such tiny wings! Watching them hop from flower to flower is a favourite pastime of mine and something I look forward to every Spring, so felt this fit in perfectly with the theme of food growing and gardening.
