Dawn Dupree Talk

I discovered Dawn Dupree's work a few years ago and although it is far more fine art than my own admire her practice and have had a chance to chat to her about the practical aspects of creating your own print workshop when I saw her at Chelsea Crafts Fair . We were fortunate enough to get paces on her master class talk at Trelowarren near my present home and to attend a talk by her about her work .She studied at Goldsmiths and has fine art influences such as Rauchenberg and Sigmar Polke . She works a lot from photographs which have a very strong sense of composition and structure (art forms in themselves) . She very much includes the world around her ie London and has a recent obsession with shopping trolleys . Her drawings are quite abstract and she uses a combination of discharege print , pigment print wnd additional detail in flocking and foiling .A very inspiring experience.
