"The artist is also a born adventurer. His explorations, unlike those of the tourist, are rewarded by the discovery of beauty spots unmentioned in the guide books, and with tireless curiosity and an exceptional proneness to wonderment, he will come upon objects of remarkable interest overlooked or even shunned by more disciplined observers."

Up North Printmakers 3rd Annual Exhibition

Something to whet the appetite:

Mezzotint. 
Stuart Brocklehurst.
One of the new works in the exhibiton.

Although the current situation is fluid and challenging to say the least, we are still hopeful that the planned Annual Exhibition of Up North Printmakers will be able to go ahead. Members have been busy throughout the spring and summer and have lots of new work to show. As usual there will be a variety of techniques on show; Etchings, Linocuts, Woodcut,Collograph, Monoprints, Wood Engravings and Mezzotint.

As with previous years, in addition to members of the group we also invite a special guest artist to exhibit with us. Usually a personal friend of group members or a printmaker who's work we admire. This year we are especially pleased to welcome our friend, collograph virtuoso Hester Cox to exhibit with us.

Once again we are hoping that Hawthorn Printmakers will be joining us on Sunday 13th September, an opportunity for local printmakers to stock up on supplies.
