Fair Ladies – the wonderful work of Tim Stampton on show throughout November
The work of illustrator and master printmaker Tim Stampton remains on show at Flowerfield until November 28
THE GALLERIES at Flowerfield were busy on Saturday November 7 as the centre hosted a drinks reception to mark the opening of Tim Stampton's new exhibition, 'Fair Ladies'. Tim Stampton is an artist, illustrator and printmaker of international acclaim now based in Donegal. He produces wood engravings, woodcuts and watercolours and collaborates with authors as an illustrator of books from Irish folklore to children's stories. 'Fair Ladies' is a series of specially produced etched prints to pioneer the use of soft ground aluminium plates etched with a salt solution, the ragged lines, random dots and marks being a by-product of the process. Flowerfield is hosting a Gallery Talk to coincide with the exhibition on Saturday 14 November, 'The Artist as Illustrator' - Admission free, but please telephone reception in advance if you wish to attend, on (028) 7083 1400.
