Event Details
Organiser: Nikki Braunton Printmaker
I first studied art at Central St Martins and gained a BA in illustration. I worked as an illustrator before I studied fine art printmaking and gained an MA at Camberwell School of Art.
I have since become a member of Greenwich Printmakers Gallery in Greenwich.
My first prints were mainly etchings producing very free and fluid images through a technique called sugar lift. I have been experimenting more recently with a combination of dry points and collagraphs. This technique gives my prints a dark, haunting quality.
I am fascinated by humour in the world around me and relationships between people. My images are often comical with a deeper darkness to them. I think of them as exorcising my demons.
Some of the galleries that have exhibited my work include;
Original Print Exhibition at the Bankside Gallery.
Leeds City Art Gallery
Lingwood Samuel Gallery Godalming
The Royal West of England Academy
