Each of the nearly seventy participants (all members of London's Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers, including several Royal Academicians) has been allocated a double page in which to offer an intimate insight into their working procedures, giving you the illusion of witnessing - behind the scenes as it were - the daily creative striving of the artist and the patient technical procedures that often underpin it. Their revelations range from the story of a near encounter with Picasso to the benefits of S. W. Hayter's uncompromising tuition at the celebrated Atelier 17, and from the taxing preparation of a mezzotint plate to the acceptance of the sometimes unforeseen - but ultimately happy - outcome of printing large collagraph images.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a valuable resource for students, practising printmakers and collectors of artists' original prints.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32087762829395,"sku":"","price":38.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781912217786_91bd6b0c-506f-4a3a-8da5-f92771bc59b9.jpg?v=1765107044","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/printmakers-secrets","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
