Once Upon a Time...

I have a book in an exhibition at UWE library at the moment along with lots of others by members of the Artists Book Club. I am running the club this year at UWE along with another Kate (Bernstein).

Once Upon a Time... is a double sided concertina book made up of collagraphs. Each tower has the king on one side and the princess on the other with the suitors riding between the two. It's about 12ins x 6ins when closed. You may recognize the characters. They are cut out from some of the (many) proofs/experiments I had  left from making the Journey Home print.

'Pilgrimage' exhibition, Gloucester Cathedral

It was the private view of the Pilgrimage exhibition at Gloucester Cathedral last night. There was a wonderfully varied response to the theme evident in the prints on show. And what a fabulous space for an exhibition! Unfortunately it was a bit dark for taking photos.

The start of the exhibition also marked the official opening of the IMPRESS PRINTMAKING FESTIVAL.A month long celebration of printmaking in the area.

I entered a new collagraph in to the exhibition
