Had a lovely afternoon last Saturday down at Swansea Print Workshop. I and the artists I went to Germany with, Chris Bird-Jones, Sarah Hopkins, Rhiannon Rees and Rhian Haf, held an open afternoon where we presented an illustrated talk and showed the work we did at Atelierhof Werenzhaim. I cut up the huge paper into 3 sections to carry them back across Europe and I’ve laid them out next to our fabulous 1920s Radcliffe etching press so you can see the size of them. I must count how many figures there are, sometime.
I made a couple of cakes for the event. On the left a gluten-free almond lemon cake decorated with maple-soaked plums. On the right, a classic jam and buttercream sponge. They went down well.
