I was looking to experiment with gel plates in my printmaking and came across this gem of a channel on YouTube. The artist is not only wonderfully experimental and fun with his mark-making and processes, he is also very generous with his knowledge. I've been loving watching his videos and trying out and building on the techniques he demonstrates, so I thought I'd share.

'A Coral Garden' by Tony Fitzsimmons focuses on his drawing experiences with the Museum of Underwater Art (MOUA) in the waters off Townsville, created during an artist-in-residence program with Umbrella in 2019-2020.

'Marble Run V' by Mindy Doré has found a wonderful home in Fitzroy!
It's always such a unique joy for artists, and indeed their galleries, to see where artworks find themselves once they've left the gallery.

yay some new work ... đ ... I'm continuing exploration of a theme and working with new waves and my boat. I'm loving de/embossing with layers. The ins and outs, ups and downs. All for the love of print and paper.

So pleased to have the Print Council of Australia mention my exhibition at Make Space in their blog đ
My exhibition is now up and open until Sunday 26th June. Exploring our thoughts and dreams, through the act of taking a dandelion seed head, closing our eyes, making a wish and blowing. What would we trade to make our dreams come true?
This collection of limited edition prints and works on paper by Amanda Donohue Artist is at Make Space at The Station Newcastle.
