I’m taking part in the Inside Out exhibition Ceiriog at The Hand in Llanarmon D.C. in October. I’m putting in this print of the Crushing Mill at Hendre Quarry, down near Pandy. It’s taken from some very quick sketches I made during our art walk to the quarry at the beginning of the month.
The print is one of a number I’ve been working on at the moment, based on places such as Hendre Quarry, the Llanymynech Limeworks and the Llangollen and Montgomery canals between here and Welshpool. It’s been nice to do some larger-scale work in black and white – and to do work based on local sites as well. I have been tempted to do several reconstruction views of these places, too. Perhaps as the Ceiriog exhibition continues I might do a few of those at some point.
