A potted history of this wonderful method which began over 100 years ago with a group of six artists in Provincetown, Massachusetts. This form of woodblock printmaking became known as the Provincetown print. Blanche Lazzell was one of the founding members. Currently Kate Hanlon, USA, works with White Line.
Cressida Campbell’s technique varies a little from the traditional Provincetown method. After drawing her image on a plywood plate, she carves the block and paints with watercolour before printing.
