Watercolour artist Shaw to hold prints exhibition

12 October 2022

NEWCASTLE-BASED watercolour artist Shaw Harper is mounting an exhibition of limited edition framed and unframed prints in the Glass Gallery, Newcastle Library, until Saturday, October 22.  

This exhibition showcases a wide range of Shaw’s watercolour paintings, through which medium he constantly tries to achieve a sense of atmosphere, primarily through the use of light and shade.

“Watercolour can be a particularly difficult medium to work in,” he said. “It’s unforgiving, and once you make a mistake, there is no way back… still, it’s a wonderfully transparent medium, and the enjoyment for me is constantly learning to master it.”

All the work on show in the exhibition is available as limited edition, high quality giclée art prints, produced in-house on high quality 190 gm fine art watercolour paper, embossed with the artist’s seal for complete authenticity and supplied with a numbered print certificate.

The full range of the limited edition prints, can also be viewed and purchased through Shaw’s website or simply by contacting the artist directly (£30 unframed and £60 framed). They can also be posted anywhere around the world (postage extra).

Shaw’s original watercolours can also be viewed and are available for purchase in his studio at 14 Tipperary Lane, Newcastle, BT33 0PN.
