Well well well. It’s Easter Sunday and what better time than now to recap what we did at the incredible contemporary design fair that took place at Somerset House from 22nd March until 1st April. It was a blast and there was so much to see. If you managed to make it down you would probably agree with me when I say that it was a complete brain overload of top notch design, illustration, prints and workshops. Far too much to absorb in one day.

Linocut is one of the simplest forms of relief printing. The process starts by cutting a design into a flat sheet of linoleum, using a knife or a chisel to carve a reverse image. The lino design is then rollered with ink and printed onto paper using a press or a bit of straightforward elbow grease! To celebrate this lo-fi, high impact medium Hermit Editions invited a group of artists to challenge their signature styles, dispense with their macbooks and tablets and get their fingers dirty with the Linocut Project.

Print Club London print and publish silk screen prints by some of the UK’s most exciting illustrative talent! This festive season Print Club London are pleased to present their new exhibition “12 Prints”. As always it was an open submission to allow the artists to showcase their own personal style and point of view. The response was amazing. The key to the show they believe, is aligning some really established illustrators, street artists and designers alongside those fresh out of art school creating an equal platform. Their aim is to bring affordable art prints to a wider demographic and encouraging buyers to invest in original artwork.
