Patricia Drew was born in Carbis Bay, Cornwall. She took her NDD at Portsmouth Collage of Art.
She had a long career in illustration, drawing & design. She wrote and illustrated six books for children, five published by Chatto & Windus. At the time she gave workshops in schools encouraging the children to write and illustrate their own books. She taught Art & Design part-time to full time students on various courses in London and at the Oxford College of Further Education. Attracted at first to printmaking by black line etching as an illustrator's medium, she then broke into the colour and freedom of monoprinting, often mixed with drypoint and etching and recently monoprinted chine collé. She loves the marks only possible in printmaking and feels the medium is a huge inspiration. Her work is still 'illustrations' of things seen, read about or dreamed of. She has been inspired by travel, especially the Far East and by many exhibitions seen at home and abroad. Patricia is a member of the OPC where she gives monoprint, monoprint and drypoint, and monoprint/chine collé workshops. She is a member of The Printmakers Council and the OAS. |
Most of my work is printed using the colour viscosity inking technique where three of four colours can be rolled onto a plate and printed as one.
