Description
Bill Jacklin RA: A Monotype Collection This handsome book showcases a wide range of exuberant monotypes by Bill Jacklin RA, created using a unique fusion of printmaking and painting techniques. The polished surfaces of these images are both beautiful and ephemeral, making each one a singular work of art. Born in London in 1943, Jacklin's artistic journey took him from graphic design to studying painting at the Royal College of Art. His work has since been characterised by twin strands: figuration and the effects of light and movement. This book reproduces many of his vibrant monotypes, which capture the essence of urban life. The accompanying conversation with poet Nancy Campbell provides insight into Jacklin's creative process and artistic vision. With 112 pages of stunning images, this book is a must-have for anyone interested in printmaking, painting, or the work of Bill Jacklin RA.
