It’s been a busy morning and afternoon bringing these new 50 x 60cm oils to life. Inspired by the watercolours and the digital paintings (included) I’ve been enjoying a more expansive way of using to paint. Lots of large puddles of colour, lots of brush cleaning, hand cleaning a trying to create interesting marks and textures out of the paint. The light in France was stunning and I hope I’ve captured something of it in these new paintings. #landscape #oilpainting #oiloncanvas #oiloncanvaspainting #light #colour #france #markmaking #contemporarybritishpainting #contemporarypainting #contemporarylandscapepainting (at St Fraimbault) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChxEAS3sxOi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On BA Fine Art Printmaking we might begin by discussing how to draw but we very quickly move onto why we draw and a simple process like blind drawing can capture a rich variety of shapes that can be used for other purposes. It can allow the student to think about line quality as well as free them up from the idea of drawing as only a mimetic act. We still have places for this September! There are still places if any of you an image making focussed fine art degree on the south coast.

When choosing a Fine Art degree course one can reflect on what you want the course to give you, but also what you bring to the course. Are you a visual artist, are you led by material or process are you more of a conceptual artist whose work is driven by theory? Of course you cannot be conceptual without translating that idea into a material that has a visual quality. Not a visual artist that has no ideas! Each of the three fine art courses at Brighton have a different emphasis but on Fine Art Printmaking we start with teaching skills, image making skills, printmaking skills, digital skills but then we start to explore thinking skills and idea development skills, research skills, digital skills etc. This is some work from our first year students investing narrative and drawing for print. If you love drawing, collage, layering, text, image, process, colour, process, photography, photoshop, Procreate as well as learning a huge range of skills then think about applying to us. We still have places for this September! There are still places if any of you an image making focussed fine art degree on the south coast.

Last chance to see the show today. It was a open day yesterday so super busy. Barely had time to breathe in between three back to back presentations and tours. And as someone asked yesterday, yes there are still places on our course if you apply now! The show ends soon and I’ll be there for the open day today. around the sublime and identity 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows22 #brightonsummershows22 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cesaw52N6SN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some images are easy to come by others undergo significant transformation. This portrait of @ot_rt_ refelected the latter where I returned again and again to the head desperately trying to capture her likeness. In a funny kind of way it mirrored how Otti makes work adding subtracting moving layering omitting fragments of image and text that hint at more complex relationships of the self to geography both real and virtual. We had a fabulous last day of term and a special thank you to Helen and The team at @cristearoberts for giving us access to some fabulous work and a chance to see the two fabulous shows @ranabegumstudio @phoebe.boswell #miramdeBurke #alikazim. Thanks also to @simsreed_gallery and @jacobsongallery for our impromptu visit and a special thanks to @tomhammick1 and @jimmy.merris for giving so much time and passion.

Hand sanitizer prints open the doorway to an image making process that touches on the idea of faded memory, loss, residue, nostalgia and allow someone like @abbeemartin_print a way to push her printmaking whilst she had to isolate during lockdown. The production of multiples also suggest the archive, history and a dialogue between the analogue and digital. 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows22 #brightonsummershows22 https://www.instagram.com/p/CekkM_UNVK4/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Scarlett @scarlett.hazel.art has spent the last three years working with traditional print processes and along the way has produced sensitively drawn etchings, screen and relief prints often investigating birds and mortality. For her stunning grand parade show she took the brave move to use high resolution scans of bird wings to produce theses large digital prints. The show continues until the 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 #etching #screenprinting #lithography @printmakerscouncil https://www.instagram.com/p/CeiKfHuM88E/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Screen printing, etching, lithography, photography, photo grams, digital printing, laser cut and using a variety of supports, @daisynell_print has tested her ideas and the processes to the limit unveiling ‘little worlds’ in the everyday. Phone cameras with microscope attachments, hand held scanners all have opened up other ways of making work. Wishing huge huge success at the RCA next year. @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 #material #printmaker #printmaking #microcosm @printmakerscouncil. @rcaprint https://www.instagram.com/p/Cec6FI4NWq6/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The act of making a print brings you into contact with the long history of Printmaking, you are making an etching the same way that Rembrandt made one, but equally as you reflect on the process you can give your work a new and challenging perspective. @artbyphoebe_iow has tested every print process to arrive at imagery and ideas that test print to it limit. Show still open this weekend and next. show ends 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 #material #printmaker #printmaking #bodyhair @printmakerscouncil #figurativeart #shaving https://www.instagram.com/p/CeamexKMhf3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On BA printmaking we question the nature of image making. Photography might be a starting point. The macro and the micro, hi res or low, analogue or digital. Drawing another, whether from observation, memory, sound or touch. Colour might be an important subject it it own right and how that colour is housed whether organic, gestural or geometric. Both @cloud32_ and @minahealyart are deeply informed by colour and process questioning the form that colour takes as well as it’s potential to hold more complex meanings. Show still open this weekend and next. show ends 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 #colour #printmaker #printmaking #procreate @printmakerscouncil #abstractart #abstraction https://www.instagram.com/p/CeYAq4MMk54/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fine Art Printmaking students are exhibiting their work today, this weekend and into next. The course is primarily focused on image making within a fine art context. An image cab be drawn, painted, photographed, printed using traditional and digital means and can even be projected and become sculptural. show ends 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 # @brightonprint2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/CeVZkzXMOLS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Delighted to announce that our Fine Art Printmaking students are exhibiting their fabulous work at our degree shows in Brighton. They have faced the most challenging three years of disrupted education, but have each developed their own language and process. A farewell gift to them is that I’ve made a digital portrait of each of them. It’s a fabulous course and we still have places. Come down to Brighton for the day and see the fantastic work on display at both our grand parade and Edward St sites show ends 12.6.22 @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @printmakingclass23 @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 # @brightonprint2019 https://www.instagram.com/p/CeTIkBOsDFY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I started this monotype back in February for a masterclass to the L5 Printmakers. I was never very happy with what I had done so after a long day of marking I spent the last hour of the reworking the series. I think these are starting to work now discovering the figures emerging out of the marks. Delighted that our degree shows open tomorrow night and to the general public on Thursday. Super proud of our Fine Art Printmaker’s @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmakingtoday @printmakingclass23 @printmaking.exhibition_2ndyear @pauperspress @rableygallery @cristearoberts @uniofbrighton @brightonsummershows #brightonsummershows22 @printpete https://www.instagram.com/p/CeO6JhlM3yR/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Two new nudes painted over two old nudes. I’ve been looking at these old paintings in my studio for months, thinking about doing something new over them. These were both quickly executed and a big thanks to @draw_brighton for the reference material from their Patreon resource. #drawing #oilonboard #nude #femalenude #patreon @jakespicerart @tilli_sits_still2 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd3jCwtsPyV/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Delighted to say that our final year printmakers are nearly there. After strikes, COVID, lockdown, remote teaching, lo fi printmaking, and a triumphant return back to the studios and workshops they will finally be showing their work in the flesh. Show opens to the public on the 2.6.22 and I’m super proud to feel part of their journey and honoured to be part of a brilliant team of academics and technical demonstrators. Thanks to everyone for supporting our students. @fineartprintmaking_uob @printmakers24 @printmakingclass23 @schoolofart_uob @brightonsummershows @uniofbrighton @heike_roesel_etchings @raydennisinprint @tonesdronesgrids @scarlettrebecca @scarlett.hazel.art @ot_rt_ @daisynell_print @saskisiu @kathleensart25 @embrace.the.payne @pallavi_printmaker @novaslj @milocostelloeart https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdv7i-HMZRi/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
