Art in Action




*Sorry I didn't post this in advance *
Colin was invited to participate this year in Art in Action, an event that happens just outside Oxford, where around 400 artists, designers, musicians and crafters show their skills and interact with the great British public.


It was four days in which he (and me sometimes) enjoyed making prints with the amazing, beautiful albion press they set up for the relief printmakers. It was fun to explain over and over again the technique and to be working next to other colleagues we already knew like Barbara Jackson and Louise Hayward.

I said it was great but it was also very intense and we were knackered at the end. And I was just the glamorous assistant...

Never heard of an albion press? check what Andy English, -another colleague we met in this event- wrote about it HERE.
