In an Exhibition of Venetian Drawings at the Ashmolean, the curator, Dr Catherine Whistler, emphasised the importance to Tintoretto of sculpture and small clay models for his observational drawings of the human form.

About

I mention this, as it supports my use of Barbie Dolls and Action Man as models for much of my recent work, which has been based on the theme of the Greek Myths.

The work began with the set of drawings and watercolours entitled ‘Pandora’s Box’. It continued with the set of 12 etchings, all based on well-known Greek mythological characters.

The set of 3 silkscreen prints were printed in a studio in Den Bosch, Netherlands, using modern hi-tech equipment.

The remainder of the prints in this exhibition are inspired by observations drawn in my sketchbook at various art based venues, and use a variety of simple print techniques.
