March started with the arrival of exchanged artworks from the Surface Gallery International Postcard Show 2013. I was lucky enough to receive three wonderful pieces from artists (left to right in the photo) http://amandaagyei.tumblr.com/ Julia Colquitt Roach (both from London), Vasilis Skandalos (Greece).
The exchange of artists' work in this way is a wonderful idea and it was great to hear from Alison Craig, an artist in Wales, who had received one of my postcards. It goes on...all over the world, artists are receiving a postcard sized original in exchange of their own, brilliant.
Meanwhile in the studio, the work on the prints about empathy continues and I find myself wondering if these are just prints or nearer to paintings now, as I am spending more time doing brushwork for the mono-printed elements for each pulled print. There is something very exciting about this.
There is always something very exciting about pulling a print though.
Metal, tools, ink, paper, pressure = alchemy.
