Discover Etching with Theresa Pateman

"oh to be an etcher, now that April's here"....well......

You may have considered taking an printmaking class but never got round to it. Perhaps you were not sure what it entails?

We discuss some forms of printmaking on our website

Theresa Pateman offers two classes at the Hampstead School of Art 19, Kidderpore Ave, London NW3 7ST on Mondays 10-1pm and 2-5pm.  She will introduce you to Drypoint, Acid Etching, Solar Plate, Mono print, Linocut and Collagraph.

To whet your appetite - here are some images showing you what happens when you employ Drypoint on Perspex- scoring into the plastic creates a surface you can rub into and make prints from, it's also an ideal material to cut to any shape.

You will receive a warm welcome!  An added incentive is the opening of a new school in the Spring term, offering a great space for all your artistic pursuits! 

Lucie Green flies solo

Lucie Green's work is very popular with our customers who are unsurprisingly drawn to her vibrant and vivacious woodcuts and etchings.

Now, there is an excellent opportunity to view up to 60 of her dynamic images in a solo show at The Granary Art Gallery, Weston Park, TF11 8LE.  The show runs from 4th - 29th March and offers free admission.  Lucie's PV is on Saturday 7th March 2pm - 4pm.

This particular exhibition will show her range of linocuts, woodcuts, collagraphs and etchings, which depict various subjects from still life to interiors to scenes from countries abroad.

Her recent relief and intaglio works take inspiration from objects around her, as well as her experiences from living overseas in Asia. Chinese woodcuts have particularly interested her, following a visit to the Chinese Academy of Fine Art in Beijing.  

Lucie has exhibited widely in the east of the country, south east and London, recently having her work on show at The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition last year.  In addition she has exhibited in Ludlow and Northern Ireland.

Lucie's work is always available at our Gallery along with work from 40+ printmakers so if you can't make it to the show - and I hope you can - drop by Southbank Printmakers Unit12, Gabriel's Wharf, 56 Upper Ground, London SE1 9PP
