Outlines Gallery
Pip Carpenter is a painter and printmaker. Pip likes to work directly from the subject, taking her printing plate, paints and paper to the scene to capture the spontaneity of first vision. She extracts details, pattern and colours from the views that inspire her to create very striking images. Her paintings are in watercolour, gouache, acrylic and pastel. Her hand made prints are etchings, drypoints, aquatints and collographs. Many of her prints are finished with hand colouring to give them extra vibrancy and texture. Pip is a member of the Greenwich Printmakers and has lectured in Art at Polytechnics and Art Schools. Her work has been featured in numerous publications including ‘The Encyclopaedia of Printmaking Techniques’ and ‘Pastel Workshop’. Details of these publications and others to which Pip has contributed can be found in the Book List TRAINING BA Painting and BA Printed and Woven Textiles, Liverpool and Camberwell Art Schools.
