I'm thrilled to be part of another iteration of 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place', celebrating the lithography of Lancaster Press, now on display in the amazing setting of Queenscliff Gallery & Workshop (an 1863 stone church) until August 1st.
Review of 'Between a Rock and a Hard Place' by Sasha Grishin
A fantastic review of Between a Rock and a Hard Place, celebrating the art of lithography at Lancaster Press and featuring my lithograph 'Ravine'. Sasha Grishin says "For those who love lithography, and I am certainly one of these people, this exhibition is an absolute treat" and "...Australian lithography, at its best, is a great and unique art form."
Between a Rock and a Hard Place is on display at Megalo Print Studio (21 Wentworth Ave, Kingston, ACT) until Saturday 28th May (Gallery hours: Tuesday to Saturday 9.30am - 5pm).
