Just when we thought fair season was over, out comes another edition of Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair!
Seasoned readers will know that this is one of my favourite fairs, both for its diversity of print techniques and accessible price points for all types of collectors. The live demonstrations are just the icing on the cake.
Here are my top 20 highlights to see:
Nick Greenglass, A Cosmic Conspiracy, 2022, screenprint, varied edition with hand finished colour-ways (@nickgreenglass)
The custom frame works really well.
