17 - New flower series' linocuts in Gallery 4
 
 
I've been adding 6 new flower linocuts
to Gallery 4 today, detail from 4 are
shown above. To see all
six in greater detail, please click here

May 14th - Something different
Over the last few weeks, between
print work, I've been working on an image of a hare for a
friend. Her brief was a simple line drawing and she sent me
a link to the Uffington White Horse as a starting point. This
is the result.
April 25th - Whole edition
has flown the nest
I had news today that the remaining
two prints from the Caernarfon Castle edtion
have sold. It's a slightly odd feeling to think that have
all 'gone' but nice nevertheless to think that they are now
spread far and wide, most in the UK but one or two further
afield.
March 9th - Lasting flowers
The hellebores
are flourishing again this year in the garden and as there
is little else in flower at this time of year, I thought I'd
include them in my ongoing flower series.
I've just added this single colour, very small edition
in Gallery 4 and explained why this print
is a little bit different to the norm.
February 16th - A print
for St David's Day
This year I've produced a
new
narcissi linocut
to celebrate my patron saint's day, St. David,
or Dewi Sant. The print is being 'officially' launched at
the Royal Cambrian Academy Gallery on March 1st ... although,
I'll be honest, I finished the print before my deadline, so
it's already there and on sale.
February 15th - "What
is a print"?
I hope the painter printmaker Anita
Klein won't object to me quoting directly
from her website. The definition of a print
is something which I feel very strongly about and when I read
the following, it really struck a chord;
"A print is an
image which has been transferred from one surface to another.
Many pictures that are sold as “prints” or even
“limited edition signed prints” are actually photographic
reproductions, actually just good quality posters. These are
made by photographing an original work of art, usually a painting
or drawing and reproducing the image photographically, often
these days with a digital technology called giclee (say jee-clay)."
All of Anita Klein’s
prints are original prints. She does not allow her work to
be made into posters |
