Its fascinating to see which images are selected for shows like this. For some people this was the less obvious choice of the images I submitted, but it is the one that is looser in the drawing and handling of resists - therefore more adventurous for an etching? Perhaps this is what the selectors saw in it.
The print/drawing room had a lot of good quality work by some of my favourites of this show, including Fiona Robinson, Ros Ford and Laurie Steen and I felt honoured to be hanging right next to David Carpanini's atmospheric etchings inspired by Welsh villages.

It was also good to see lots of representatives of UWE's MA Print course, and of the Gloucestershire Printmaking Co-op.
Its a good show, worth a visit if you're in the Bristol area.

How fantastic! I will try to come and see this exhibition. It sounds fascinating. If I don't make it, I will certainly come to see your work in Cirencester after Christmas.
