Linocut

31 x 40 cm

Edition of 11

Andy Abram’s work explores the ancient sites, monuments and landscapes in an around his home in the Carneddau Mountains in Eyryri National Park, North Wales. Working from his own original photographs and drawings, Andy produces limited edition, multi-layer reduction linocuts and photogravure prints depicting the rich textures of the landscapes and sites that he takes inspiration from. Andy graduated from the University of Salford in 1995 with a Higher National Diploma in Graphic design. It was whilst studying that Andy was introduced to various printmaking techniques such as linocut, screen printing and etching and where he first began to experiment with that form of image making. After a 25 year career in print and digital design, Andy returned to his roots and has been a practising printmaker for the last 4 years. During that time, he has honed his skills with Linocut, and learned the process of photogravure. Andy has exhibited work recently at the Royal Cambrian Academy in Conwy, Liverpool Art Fair and is in the process of applying to be an associate member of the RCA.
