Carolyn Murphy delivered ‘Serenity’, her A1 linocut commission, today, on time, to the Macmillan Centre at Wythenshawe Hospital. It didn’t take long for the building contractors to fix it to the wall in the new extension, which will open soon. The official opening will be in a few months’ time.
The original linocut was created by hand using a reduction process from one huge piece of A1 lino. It went through the etching press five times and the full process is captured in Carolyn’s blog
Carolyn Murphy’s A1 linocut commission for Macmillan is finally finished and drying. It will be delivered to them, framed, on Wednesday 21 March. The video below shows Carolyn printing the final colour at Hot Bed Press in icy conditions:
The snowy weather tried its hardest to interfere with the tight schedule, however it’s all on track.
Probably Prints published a blog about this exciting project.
All the ‘behind the scenes’ images, the story behind the commission and the development of the A1 linocut print and the prototype quarter-sized print are on Carolyn Murphy’s blog.
