Gainsborough’s House Print Workshop is run, along with a thriving museum, by Gainsborough’s House Society, an independent charity with educational aims. Recognised as one of the best facilities of its kind in the country, it enjoys a unique and inspiring setting, opening onto the charming garden at Gainsborough’s House, birthplace of the painter Thomas Gainsborough (1727-1788).

Meet the Artist: daily presentations at ARTWORKS 2015: Kit Price Moss – Paper, Printmaking & Puffins!

Meet the Artist: daily presentations at ARTWORKS 2015

Today, Monday 14th September 2015, Kit Price Moss will be at Blackthorpe Barn sharing and discussing sketching from nature and the printmaking techniques she uses in her work.

My sketchbooks have always been important to me. I enjoy drawing from life outdoors – people and activities – and, as a keen naturalist, birds and other animals in landscapes.

Monday 14 September 2015: Kit Price Moss – Paper, Printmaking & Puffins!

Kit Price Moss will be at the ARTWORKS exhibition from 10am – 4pm.
