Printmaker Jillian Ross, the manager and resident printmaker at David Krut Workshop in Johannesburg, South Africa, has a new web site live this week. She’s a great friend and a brilliant printer, thinker, maker and collaborator, who I owe a great debt to when it comes to opening my eyes to the experimental world of print, and who I hope to work with many times again in the future. From the front of her site:
Jillian Ross is well-known throughout South Africa not only for producing high quality limited edition prints with emerging and established artists alike – using a large variety of traditional techniques – but also for her unique, collaborative approach to more experimental mark-making with contemporary artists who normally work in other media.
Jill’s drawers of printed work include a range of intaglio techniques from spitbite and sugarlift aquatints, drypoint, engraving and carborundum with international artist William Kentridge, to performative scanner art that has been transformed into pronto prints, experimental aquatints, carborundum, chine colle, and engravings with artist Nathaniel Stern.
Go there to see more prints and read more about Jill’s work – most art is available for purchase.
