Sandy McEwan

BA Hons Grays school of Art

Sandy's work evokes nostalgia and stories that have become altered through their retelling. She uses found objects as well as cherished memorabilia. Many of her stories are based on her travels where she also uses old maps to work with. She uses traditional printmaking techniques - copper plates onto which she etches, woodcuts, lino, mono print and collographs.

In her work - such as the collaged stamps and maps - there is a distinct imagery related to "You are" - "Because of what you've read and where you've travelled"

Michael Stuart Green
A printmaker and painter, Michael's work is a response to rural, urban and industrial landscapes and to people.
His choice of media is dependant on subject matter, but always considered in conjunction with his two constant preoccupations; drawing and mark-making.
Michael has work retained in numerous public collections in the UK and Europe, including the Gallery of Modern Art, Edinburgh and the Hunterian Museum, Glasgow.
"....I employ a wide range of media, both singly and in combination: it all depends on the subject and how I feel about it. But whichever medium I choose there are two constant preoccupations, the first being drawing: whether I am working on a large painting or a small print, drawing is always the start. Secondly I am preoccupied by actual mark-making- the nature and quality of the marks I make on paper or on canvas as I respond to my subject."
