David Penn
Although having an academic interest in printmaking for some time, I hadn't thought seriously about making prints, considering myself rather piously as more of a painter. However, on mentioning to a friend that we were moving to Dorset he suggested that I visit Poole Printmakers. In the atmospheric Workshop I instantly fell under the spell of the charismatic and inspirational John Liddell, who wasted no time in supplying a piece of lino, a few cutting tools and just the right amount of instruction.
My interest has always been in landscape and I now find the limitations inherent in relief printing processes impose the necessity of developing new ways of exploring an image; for example, patterns, shapes and geometric forms can become more dominant and lead to interpretations that would have remained submerged in a more plastic and painterly approach. This, of course, informs my painting which in its turn creates a dialogue with the printmaking."
