Bristol Boats in Blue - Hand Pulled Screen Print by Amy Hutchings

One sunny Monday morning, Amy couldn't stand the thought of being indoors, so she grabbed her sketchbook, made a coffee and went to the harbourside.

This is a limited edition silkscreen print based on a pen and ink drawing in Amy's sketchbook. One of a limited edition of 45, this is hand-printed onto Somerset satin, editioned, titled and signed by the artist.

Delivery for this print is via second class signed for in a postal tube.

Meet Amy Hutchings

Amy Hutchings is a multi-disciplinary artist with over 25 years of experience.

Having developed an interest in print from the age of 12, Amy now specialises in print-making, designing and creating murals. Amy has recently completed a professional scholarship between UWE and Spike Print Studio which has allowed her time and space to experiment with new methods and techniques.

She is inspired by the everyday and overlooked. “I am always open to new experiences as I walk around the city. Inspiration can be as simple as the way shadows fall across the path, the interplay of colours in my immediate environment or the contrast between the natural and manmade.” Colour and hand-drawn imagery are central features in all of Amy’s work. She loves to work by hand and produces everything using traditional techniques and processes. Her portfolio encompasses silkscreen print, etchings, aquatint, murals and enamels.

Amy has been involved in an ongoing regeneration project in Hotwells, creating several large- scale, colourful murals for the Hotwells and Cliftonwood Community Association, Art Within the Cracks and Art Under the Flyover. She has also produced large scale murals for (amongst others) Bristol Eye Hospital, Loughborough Town Council and Bristol City Council.

She is never happier than when she is playing with drawing, colour and print. Oh – and she is partial to biscuits.
