Finished print of pots and vases

Here’s the final ‘test’ print of these pots. I’m pretty happy with how it came out, barring a few dodgy bits of carving and colour choice in some parts. I am now working on a bigger version which will probably look very different!

This one is on a paper called Botan, it’s quite crisp and clean looking;

And this one is on Awagami paper, the texture in the paper gives it a very painterly look which I quite like:

'Printmaker Nancy Power's work reflects the life around her. Be it a changing rural landscape, the decaying plants in her garden, or her collection of hand crafted ceramics, she finds inspiration from many sources. Deliberately eclectic in subject matter, her work is harmonised by her colour palette and distinctive inking process. Nancy uses the reduction method of lino printmaking; carving away at just one block for each consecutive colour to reveal the final image. By inking from dark to light, as opposed to the more traditional light to dark, Nancy's work has engaging depth and colour layering.'

  1. I’ve loved watching the progress and thought processes of this artwork- what a difference the paper makes to the outcome. Really like this – the objects stand out from each other yet remain as a group – soft muted colours with some starkness – gorgeous
