The Tenby Art Matters Gallery is hosting more than 60 prints by West Williamston artist Susan Sands this month, which were produced specially for the exhibition.

The original prints are made by Susan using wood, metal, stone, lino or papers to create images by incising, engraving or building layers of texture, then applying ink and printing from the plate on to paper, using a press.

Susan is qualified in her field by training and experience. From her degree in fine art in 1957, through her work in ceramics, book design and illustration abroad in the 60s, to being a founder member of the Greenwich Printmakers, she has continued to develop and exhibit her work in paint and print.

In the 1970s and 1980s her work was exhibited at galleries in London, including the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of Portrait Painters, the Royal Society of Painter-Etchers and the Royal Watercolour Society, as well as through the printmakers' co-operative at Greenwich.

On show in Tenby will be etchings, lithographs, linocuts, woodcuts and collagraphs, as well as many monoprints focusing on many different subject matters including figures, still life, landscape, portrait, Indian deities, flowers and even building constructions.

The exhibition continues until April 28th and there are also two associated events to which the public are invited.

During the Tenby print weekend on from Friday to Sunday (April 4th to 6th), Susan will be joined by a group of invited printmakers who will show their unframed work within her exhibition.

This Friday at 7.30pm Susan will talk about her exhibition and about printmaking methods, with contributions from the other artists, and everyone is invited to join them. Susan will also be at the gallery on Saturday, April 19th from 2pm to 4pm.

Art Matters Gallery, in South Parade, Tenby is open from 10am to 5pm every day except Wednesday. For further information ring 01834 843375.
