Bristol artist Emily Ketteringham at Minuteman Press Bristol
Minuteman Press Bristol are delighted to host a display of the work of local Bristol artist Emily Ketteringham. Emily has created many colourful screen prints and charming drawings of buildings and iconic locations in Bristol and its surrounding areas. A selection of Emily’s artwork has been reproduced by Minuteman Press using our large format Hewlett Packard inkjet press.
Emily’s artwork is distinctive and great fun. Simple illustrative lines are brought to life by rich areas of bold colour or pattern. The technique lends itself perfectly to the subjects depicted, such as the brightly coloured houses of Ambrose Hill, the Tobacco Factory and areas of Southville; popular scenes unique to Bristol.
Emily’s pictures are on show 24/7 in the windows of the print centre at 15 – 19 Nelson Parade, BS3 4HY. Emily always welcomes commissions and her work can be seen here Emily.
