More from GPS

These prints were by Janka Malkowska, and were by far my favourite. I have a few photos of works by her which I will post next. The Old Barn print was quite large at around A1, and the boats were much smaller at about 30 x 30 cm.


GPS

Another woodblock print from GPS. This one is by Jayne Naylor. I love the different textures and also the lightness of the print.


Glasgow Print Studio Visit

This post is long overdue - things have been a bit here there and everywhere since before Christmas and I can now finally get back to things. I went to view some prints from the Glasgow Print Studio before Christmas, and it really was well worth the trip. My photos are really not the best though.
This is a huge wood block print by Peter Howson called The Lonely Hero, done in the 80's. I think it measures 2 x A0! so it was pretty hard to photograph, let alone print!

Girl and house drawing

I completed this drawing this week, which was quite a challenge. A real test of focus, but I am happy with it as a piece on it's own. I will be printing it up at some stage though too. perhaps just simply as it is, or with other layers.
