A show of prints from selected members of Somerset Printmakers (and yes that includes me!) opens this Friday at the Wine Street Gallery, Unit 10, White Horse Business Centre, Hopton Road, Devizes SN10 2HJ. Great looking gallery, and there are ceramics too. Check it out at www.thewinestreetgallery.com The show is on until January 31st. Above is one of my drypoint prints from 2010, which will be in the show along with a number of other from this series. I am still working with dry point, as I love the directness, but have been finally persuaded by my fellow printmakers at the Dove (we call ourselves Fingerprint….) to try etching with copper sulphate on aluminium, which is a recently developed ‘safe’ way of etching. Have been wrestling with my first plate since October, but am getting there I think! More news soon about other good things happening with projects and exhibiting, but in the meantime, get thee to Devizes and buy everyone prints for Christmas……
