Carla Bromhead - Signs approvals

You may remember back in August, Carla came along to the workshop with the Publishing Award that she received at her degree show in May. Carla drew two stones with three images for her lithographs Albert, Cecil & Derek. There were plans to make a forth with Winston, but alas he wasn't to be. I was delighted that Carla was able to return to the shop to see the completed proofs and sign the approvals to print.

A trial proof of each image will be donated to the Fine Art Postcard Auction which will take place on Thursday 26th November in the Hatton Gallery.

More information about the prints will be on the website shortly, until then here are some images of the approvals being chopped and signed. Thanks to Carla for snapping a few pictures and her dad for the last one.

Jennifer Douglas - Archenland

On a cold and very wet afternoon, Jennifer Douglas came along to the workshop to sign her completed edition 'Archenland' - an edition of 15 + proofs, printed in Turquoise on Magnani Pescia grey.
