Luke Jerram - Withdrawn

Needed to share what I discovered on my country walk through Leigh Woods, Bristol today - a collection of abandoned fishing boats nestled amongst the trees. The colours and peeling paint invited me in and I couldn't help but smile at this surprise encounter created by artist Luke Jerram.

Bath Artist Printmakers in Alkmaar, Netherlands

Over the summer some of my prints have travelled north to Holland in a BAP group exhibition. The Grafische Atelier Alkmaar is celebrating its 40th anniversary and invited print workshops throughout europe to participate in an extraordinary festival in the Grote Sint Laurens Kerk in Alkmaar. The event includes exhibitions, workshops, demonstrations, discussions and lectures centred around printmaking. BAPʼs response to their invitation is to send an archival box containing some 30 prints produced by our members and for three of our members to participate in week long residencies. This is an exciting opportunity to see how similar studios operate in Holland, to exchange ideas and views on how we may both continue to survive and hopefully maintain a dialogue in the future.
