Recently
launched "The Fine Art Print Company"
Kath Cockshaw, former
curator at Leamington Spa Art Gallery & Museum would like to make contact with
LSA members.
I have recently launched The
Fine Art Print Company, managed by print specialist, Dunstan Baker. Our fine art
reproduction services are targeted specifically at artists, galleries and
museums. We are able to document any fine art media, print at any size (from
small to very large format, max 1.6m width) using the highest quality archival
inks, papers and canvases. We operate a print-on-demand service, an ideal form
of self-publishing for emerging and professional artists.
The website,
www.fapc.co.uk will be launching shortly.
I also co-manage Hawkins, a
new commercial art gallery in Bath and continue to work as a freelance
exhibitions curator.

kath@fapc.co.uk, or phone 01225 333177.

LIFE DRAWING
I teach regular Life Drawing workshops on the first Saturday of every month
in the studio at Shottery Memorial Hall nr. Stratford on Avon. Previous
experience of life drawing, though desirable ,is not essential as the aim is to
improve the drawing skills of each individual from whatever level they begin. I
cover a variety of drawing activities ranging from very quick poses to quite
long ones, involving pure line drawing and full tonal drawing.
We start at 10am and finish at 4.30pm. - the cost is £35 for the day.
Advanced booking is essential - please contact me if you would like to book or
require further details.

5th
to 20th July 2008
Warwickshire Artsweek is the biennial
celebration of the visual arts & crafts, open to all
artists living and/or working in Warwickshire. The
event, now in its 8th year, offers a wonderful
opportunity to promote and sell work through galleries,
open studios, exhibitions, workshops and demonstrations.
Since its inception in 2000,
Warwickshire Artsweek has grown from a handful of
exhibitions and open studios across the county to over
170 separate events in 2006. Warwickshire Artsweek forms
part of the growing national calendar of open studio and
artsweek events that happen every year across the UK.
However, the one big change for
Warwickshire Artsweek 2008 is that it is now being
organised and managed by the people that matter, the
artists themselves!
