London Plane Tree

London Plane Tree

Post author By admin
Post date 02/05/2017

Etching
18 x 28cm
Edition of 50

Review

"The artist observes and records beauty in the least likely of places, such as the oily grey mud and waters of a London river where a frond of seaweed drifts by and occasional vivid colours of a passing blue buoy or a red balloon. Industrial shapes of cranes and gas works emerging from fogs of silvers, golds and greys. He includes a passing helicopter, seagulls chatter and a plane as soundtrack for his gentle observation. In his etchings the contrasts are dramatic in a different way, the mountains and cliffs of Ireland stand against the tactile softness of wet sand and seaweed or the luminosity of sea and sky. In Dreamfields he has used double exposure on film to create ghostly landscape images. I get the impression of an artist who is sharply observant, but find no hint of criticism in what he observes, only a patient watchfulness. His work can be hypnotically serene." JUDY RUSSELL - POET

An Eroded History of the Lower Depths Vol.II 135x95cm
So for my final day I’m sharing one of the Wilderness/Eroded suite made in 2007 and hung for RA summer show and RWA autumn show 2009 and reprised here as the centrepiece for Deptford Deposit Returned exhibition early this year this very limited edition print is where the rabbit hole led and still resonates for me after all this time!

Deptford Deposit 1b 32x23cm
This was the first plate to go into the creek in 2005. Soft grounded zinc left for a couple of weeks then slowly bitten in weak nitric for a long time. The plate is inked up then surface rolled with litho ink before printing. Little did I know at this time that it would take me down the digital rabbit hole!

Day 8 and a change of subject and technique. Deptford Lifting Bridge 30x20cm was from a 35mm photo I took in a snow storm in 2003. It’s had a few incarnations but this aquatint etching found its way into the first creekside open 2005 and the RA summer show in 2006 when I made my one and only BBCtv ‘interview’.

Day 7 of earlier work challenge set by @nickrichardsetching
Today is the last in the Irish landscape suite although I’ve been working on a new one for what seems like years.
It’s back to Wicklow for the iconic Great Sugar Loaf (not that one) 60x40cm
I used to climb this as a kid before breakfast and as an adult a lot later. My family lived in its shadow. Granite topped with quartzite hence the name.

Clahane 60x40, a shift to a west coast seascape of a favourite spot in Co. Clare. The granite batholith of Wicklow mountains is replaced by the limestone pavement of the Burren meeting Ireland’s Atlantic sea.

I’ve been nominated by my good friend @nickrichardsetching to post some of my earlier images. This 2006 etching of the Wicklow Hills in Ireland was described (positively I think) as a ‘slag heap’ by @fin_pupapress
