Susie Perring - Printmaker
My work
Nowadays I work almost entirely in aquatint (images made up entirely of tones, with no drawn lines) or make monoprints painted directly on the printing plate.
I love aquatints for the range of contrast possible, and for the velvety
effect it gives, especially with darker colours. Much of the work is made
using multiple plates, which are laborious to create, but give wonderful
luminous colours in the prints. Almost all of the prints on show are aquatints.
About me
I went to the London College of Printing in 1963-1967, and then worked as a graphic designer in the 60s and 70s. In 1984, I started full time as an artist, specialising as a printmaker in etchings, line and aquatint. I also taught print at the LCP and for the Outreach programme of Dulwich Picture Gallery's Education Department.
I have also been commissioned for complete editions destined for P&O liners: Oriana, The Pride of Rotterdam and The Pride of Hull.
