Artist Lynne Robinson inherited a love of art and printing from her mother — as well as her old Japanese printing press.
Lynne says her mother was the main inspiration in becoming a printmaker. Her mother attended art school from a young age and discovered the art of printing as an adult.
Lynne is one of the Arts Collective Whangamata committee members and is media co-ordinator preparing for the Mid Winter Mingle.
As one of the few printmakers within the Arts Collective, the prints she is working on for the upcoming Arts Collective Whangamata Mid Winter Mingle are drypoint etchings created on metal plates.
Kete o te Mautauranga – Baskets of Knowledge is three plates to create the total composition, all featuring kete, which Lynne often incorporates into her etchings.
