Cromer Artspace 'Colour' exhibition

 Winter Umbels

I'm delighted to say this monoprint has been selected for the Cromer ArtSpace autumn exhibition called - 'Colour'

statement - Colour choice matters hugely, sometimes I instantly know the colours for a print, also I can endlessly add and block colour as with ‘Winter Umbels’ which has a monoprinted base with added layers.  I wanted cool tones to resonate with winter but also that odd moment of warmth when spotting an autumn leaf or sunset glow. A colour clash can give an unexpected thrill in the print, waking it up

Exhibition starts on the 29th September till the 18th October,

Southwold, Sailor's Reading Room

A recent lino print, I'm getting lot's of new lino prints ready for an exhibition in September at the wonderful Craftco in Southwold. Craftco is particuarly good for a printmaker as work is all original with not a giclee (photocopy of an original) print in view. They have lots of caft made locally, hand felted coats, jewellery and very fine ceramics to name a few.
