Linocut exercise

I have been reluctant to post this print as it seems er, gloomy but it was really an exercise in cutting away to get the thinest linocut lines and a lot of blank space and still get a print.

Post updated October 8th 2024. This is the final version of Requiem for Oil, 270 x 165 cm, mixed textiles, lino-print, transfer & other print, stamping, ink, fabric paint, embroider and machine stitch. I delivered the quilt to 44AD gallery in Bath yesterday and it will be on display from Thursday 10th October as part of the Bath OPen Art Prize Exhibition 2024.

Art Brut (‘raw art’ or for the cupboard) I expect. But more influenced by the COBRA (Copenhagen, Brussels, Amsterdam) anti-formalism movement which grew out of Dada and the disaster of WW2.

If you’re in Amsterdam be sure to visit Cobra Museum in Amstelveen.

Requiem for Oil, artist’s book, 2016 (I updated the title)

No Comments on Gill Thompson, artist and printmaker

I just came across this terrific printmaker, Gill Thompson working in collagraph and lino and mixed media. I might make the effort to travel to at Anlanntair in Stornoway for one of her classes.
