Brighton University samples- Painting & Graphics.

Shame I didn't take more photos. Much much more on show.
Just to add, I don't usually like painting but some of these below caught my eye.

Saatchi's New Sensations

My most recent trip to London consisted of an interesting visit to the Drawing exhibition at the British Museum, and an even more impressive trip to the new Saatchi show Newspeak in posh Chelsea.
Here are some of my favourites from Newspeak, the much needed calmer predecessor to the YBA's Sensation.

Finally chance to update my blog. Enjoy.




Pressed Exhibition opening night went down well. The room was full most of the night, all the wine was drunk, and at least two prints were sold!
Even though we ended up with limited wall space, I think we did pretty well for a first year show.

Prints



Latest screenprints.



Woodcuts.


Pulling shapes.


These two pieces above were really successful when turned into silkscreens.
I'm really loving playing with ambiguous shapes over these lonely black and white images.

I'm really enjoying this work at the moment. The prints from some of these pages have been very successful.

Thinking of exhibiting a few in the first year exhibition, PRESSED.
