In the workshop: Karen Davies
It's been a fun packed day in the studio with Karen Davies - 'Egg Girl.' We made some test stones using rubbing ink and giving 'Acid Tinting' a whirl - with lovely black ink, Penguin rings and Blackcurrent & Liquoirce a plenty.

Dan Lovelace: Signing
It's been a busy few days in the workshop. Dan has produced a bunch of new work, a "Lucha Libre" series of monotypes with hand drawing, monoprints and a set of eight photo-polymer intaglios. It was good to let the etching press stretch it's legs, we will be making more use of it in the future.

New Artist: Dan Lovelace
On Sunday we were delighted that Dan Lovelace made the long journey up from London to spend a week in the workshop. We made a start on Monday morning after a relaxing evening sampling the local beverages, purchasing books from the honesty piano and enjoying a wee bit of folk music.
Dan is initially working versions of three images as monotypes which may have hand drawn elements and/or possibly move forward as monoprints.
