The Littlest Obby Oss – Pen Munys – 13th Pressing
This mini print depicts a mast beast obby oss. This one is called PenMunys, or Tiny Head in Cornish. Cornwall, like Wales, also has a tradition around festivities, documented in Cornish Christmas Guise plays of including an obby oss character, constructed as a mast beast with an articulated horses skull on top. The Cornish oss typically has a dress of tatters and appear very often are very tall, dance and run at speed, and are full of mischief. They are accompanied by a teazer who does their best to keep them under control, for everyone’s safety, but anything not nailed down or tightly fastened may find itself a tasty morsel of these beasts.

Here Be Monsters – Limited Edition – Hand printed & painted Linoprint
Inspired from reading some of the historical newspaper stories that can be found in The Pine Barren Institute’s “Monsters in Print” compiled by Adam Benedict, my psyche was visited by this Giant Sea Lady, gorging herself on boats and ships, crunching through bows and sterns on moonlit nights. Here Be Monsters!
Colours may differ slightly from the screen image and sister prints due to the nature of their production, (all hand finished and painted by me)
