Quite informative to play with these printing techniques. I have a pin press, so will experiment with it to create mode prints. Another tracing tool is using a 'golf ball' rolling it lightly on the back of the paper that is over the plate. Makes great dotted lines.
I love the idea of making your own sketch pads and recording the things that catch the eye and imagination. I'm going to walk into town and see how many things I notice in a different way. I'm trying to work out you accent. Are you from Bristol?
Just a helpful suggestion, you need to get video camer very close to what you are doing. Now I feel.like I am watching you in the cheap sits in the back.
Your mission is wonderful and so important! Art has been proven to have emotional and even physical healing power for certain. I do fine art, paper crafting & mixed media and always like to see quick and easy techniques that anyone can use. I’m in the U.S. and watch a good bit of UK 🇬🇧& EU 🇪🇺 art channels and of course lots of U.S. 🇺🇸 art channels. I just subscribed👍🤗
I flipped out seeing your work at the San Francisco Fall show. It blew me away. I kept thinkg if you "just" had this in your home, your home would be ENTIRELY different. How generous of you to do this -- THANK YOU !
This was great! Thank you so much! I really appreciate your pedagogical approach. You’re offering techniques and not “prefab” projects. I like your emphasis on process over product.
