It is over a year ago now that I enjoyed a one day drypoint course at John Howard Print Studios. Like for many, the last year has been pretty disrupted and for many reasons non-productive. I’m really looking forward to developing some drypoint prints in 2021.
Collage drawings
Some small scale collages, prepatory work for a new group of screen-prints this summer.
Line work
I have been working on hand drawn collages (80 x 80cm), preparatory work for large scale screen-printed collages on board. Lot’s of lines……..
Drawings for new screen-prints
I have been working on a series of drawings and quick collages as preparatory work for some new screen prints. I plan to make some prints in small editions this autumn. I am enjoying exploring the interconnected languages of line, composition, colour, texture and 3 dimensional space within the picture plane.
New Studio and collages
I moved into a wonderful new studio in April 2018 at Grays Wharf, Penryn. There are 9 studios, home to a mixture of painters, photographers, ceramicists and illustrators.
Acetates at the ready!
After 6 months of pens, ink, scalpel and glue, I have now scanned all my collages and drawings. The images have then been printed onto acetate ready to be transferred to screens for screen-printing.
drawings for new work
I have started work on a new body of screen prints. After a long break from making, my children are now all at school, so I am excited to be drawing again and getting back into my creative practice. Can't wait to get printing, watch this space............
