Britt Coxon
Hi, I’m Britt Coxon (she/her or they/them). I’m a multidisciplinary visual artist based in North East England, making things for web and print. Things I do include painting illustration, graphic design, websites, papercraft, music, photography, comics and zines. My work has a collaborative and communication focus, often resulting from workshops, consultations with educators or interactions with the public. My work explores communication, mental health, self-empowerment, community and understanding. I love working both digitally and with pen and paper, the most satisfying part of my work is being able to combine analogue and digital in interesting ways to create something unique.

Sunday Zine Club #21’s theme was splash. I decided to gather my pictures of children playing in the rain and use them to tell a little story. I’m still getting used to using a fude style fountain pen but I am enjoying the results. I’ve...

I mentioned in my last post that I’ve been experimenting with different ways of digital drawing, leaning towards a more opaque painting style for colour than I usually would. I’m enjoying the results. My obsession with birds continues....
I realised I had tabs open on my laptop. My Gripes With The Artist’s way by Andromeda Zines. I’m hardly the first person to point out some of these issues but I wanted to throw my hat into the ring regardless. In a world that pushes...
This blog post format has no standards. Here are some nice things I’ve been holding onto in the form of open tabs or things added to bookmarks for slightly too long. Blogs get philosophical “TO THE GREATER GLORY OF GOD” by ArtLung. The...
This month’s IndieWeb Carnival is hosted by James, who has chosen the topic Museum memories. I love my local museums, most are part of North East Museums, which are free to enter and have a publicly accessible archive. I spent many...
It’s well past time for an IndieWeb Carnival post. This month, the theme is Intersecting Interests, chosen by Zachary Kai. I have trouble picking apart my interests to know if they are intersecting, or just the same thing in a different...
A very important questionnaire via Zachary Kai. This page is my tribute to the most reliable and versatile meal: sandwiches! A questionnaire exploring preferences and the joy of stuff between bread. Why don’t you answer it? A Sandwich...

Zachary Kai recently asked if I’d like to be on a list of people willing to trade blog post titles. Of course I said yes, I really enjoyed our trade last year and would love to do more. Soon after James got in touch to offer a trade. I...
