My discipline is relief printmaking. I am a calligraphic printmaker – that is I design lettering to express chosen pieces of text, cut them in lino – backwards! and print on an etching press using damp paper to produce a raised, embossed surface. The cutting of the master is slow and painstaking, but each print taken is a kind of thrill because no two prints are exactly identical. That’s why I love printmaking.
From TOOTSLAND, the Land of Beasties, Tooters and Oddities, come ceramic sculptures conjured from the imagination of Carol Mayne, a place where even she fears to tread. Once upon a time, she was a jeweller specializing in lost-wax-casting. Early onset cataracts put an end to wax modelling but being a modelling fool, she was compelled to find something else to keep her hands & fingers busy. Also something she could see. Clay seemed to fit the bill and it’s hoped you like what you see.
Painting myself loosely with the broad brush of artist I have recently rediscovered my love for art and now mainly work in pen, ink and watercolour. I have diverse and assorted taste reflected in my choice of subject matter. Taking influence from natural forms and flora to buildings and people, I like my work to capture a snap shot of something that’s caught my attention. I will be exhibiting a selection of my pen and ink illustrations, paintings and prints.
