Wood Engraving
Media Dimensions: 40 x 37 cm
Image Dimensions: 25 x 18 cm
Edition of 50
Framed/unframed
David Robertson is inspired by nature. He walks and sketches in the countryside, creating wood engravings from these drawings back in his studio. His favourite places to explore include the rugged North Devon coastline and the National Parks of Dartmoor, the Peak District and Snowdonia. Awed by the scale of Avebury, in 'Sarsen Stones, Avebury', David captures both the detailed textures of the monumental stones, whilst also placing them within the context of the other stones in the circle. David is an elected member of the Society of Wood Engravers, the Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers and a QEST scholar. He has been shortlisted for the Boodle Hatfield Prize and won the John Purcell Paper Prize at Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair. David has had a residency at the University of Bath curated by The Holburne Museum with a large-scale print installation. His work is held in public collections at the Royal Library, Windsor; Ashmolean Museum, Oxford; Manchester Metropolitan University; Heilongjiang Museum of Printmaking; and, at CAFA, Beijing, as well as private collections around the world.
