Recognize this - this time last year ?!!


This time last year or thereabouts we were all frantically creating new pieces of work at the print workshop for the forthcoming Silver exhibition at the Kirkaldy art museum. I just came across these on my Flickr album and thought that some of you might like to have a look.

As mentioned in the newsletter, "6 Sides to Every Story" is an international printmaking project. When I say mini-print , I mean mini-print.!!
The area size of surface (wood) that one has to work on is only two by two inches or 5 by 5 centimetres. Heres where you can find out more about this project. If you are interested then get moving on it, quickly.

Welcome to the FDPW Blog

Whats the FDPW you may be asking. Well its the Fife and Dunfermline Print Workshop blog. The aim is to provide a space where members can be informed as to what other FDPW members are up to. This meaning in terms of creative output, exhibition wise and to offer one another support and advice technically and all other printmaking related matters.
