AA2A University of Worcester

Today I met the third and final AA2A colleague, Clais, which was fascinating. We had a healthy chat, and will be comparing notes by email shortly. I had been preparing the aluminium plates at the end of last week, and today was able to start two new etchings: one figurative, of a female on starting blocks, and another of a view across a working port. The fumes from the hardground were very strong and I had to open the windows as wide as possible. The University was officially open today so car parking was free and there were plenty of proud parents ambling around with their offspring. No doubt as they walked past the Print room window they were wondering what was cookng. I used a machine tool into a relief block print, and can proof that on Friday. I also checked into the library, and shall be taking out some reference material. I think the format for showing the prints in the June exhibition will be a slide show in the darkened video space. Now I need to source a projector for the five day duration. Outside all the daffodils were at their best, the hockey pitch was in full use, and I noticed the trees in bud. Spring has arrived.
