Adrienne Peverall
Adrienne Peverall was born in London and lived in Egypt, Germany and Cyprus in the 1950s. She trained as a ceramics teacher in the seventies but joined the printmaking class at the Penzance Art School in 1989. Since then he has exhibited etchings and monoprints with the Penwith Printmakers.
“The moorland around Bosullow is my main source of inspiration and my work will often include foxes, rabbits, rooks and other animals seen on walks with the dog. The colours of the moors, of heather and gorse, I try to capture in my monoprints, and the wind sculpted hawthorns and ancient stones I have tried to describe in etchings.
“Monoprinting is a good way of expressing ideas quickly and is an interesting process involving painting on to a paper plate and finishing the image before the ink dries. The image is then transferred to printing paper by putting the paper and the plate through an etching press.”
Adrienne is a member of Penwith Printmakers, St Ives Society of Artists, and Porthmeor Print Workshop, St Ives.
