Following on from the success of our Black and White exhibition The Craft Centre and Design Gallery is thrilled to now present a contrasting selection of vibrantly coloured prints from a diverse group of respected printmakers.  Each printmaker has been carefully selected to demonstrate their unique style in printmaking where colour plays a key part, showing a range of techniques in the process.

‘Collectively the show makes a cheerful and energetic exhibition for everyone to enjoy.’

Jenny Devereux’s vibrant depiction of flowers showcase a wonderful palette of colours in a unique distinctive style.  Her etchings look alive and fresh and are a real joy to have on display for this themed show.
Susie Perring’s stunning aquatint prints showcase work that has strong tonal contrasts.  Her work is over-printed using multiple plates which result in a splendid velvety texture.
Richard Spare’s drypoint prints have a rich black line quality, which contrasts beautifully with his strong use of colour.  His depictions of flowers show a wonderful style in printmaking.
Louise Davies’ etchings and collographs depict places and landscapes visited where she shows interest in the natural light and the effect it has on these scenes.  Vibrant colours combined with a strong illustrative drawing style make her collection truly radiant.
