Eric Gaskell
Eric Gaskell is a painter and printmaker who has been active in the creative industries since graduating from art college in 1980 with two scholarships. His work has been exhibited widely in solo and group shows across the UK, Europe, and North America. For Eric, strong draughtsmanship, combined with bold composition and vibrant colour, forms the foundation of his artistic practice. His recent work explores Greek and Roman mythology as allegorical themes, allowing him to experiment with pattern, composition, and colour. Seascapes are a recurring motif, drawn from a mix of direct observation, memories, and imaginative flights of fancy. Eric specializes in linocut printmaking, a medium he values for its immediacy and textural qualities, though the process often demands weeks of meticulous effort. His work reflects a passion for storytelling through pattern and form, creating compelling and vivid imagery.

Exhibition Record
Contemporary British Printmakers on the English Riviera
Following a successful month at Delamore Arts, Artizan Collective are pleased to be bringing their Contemporary British Printmakers Exhibition to their gallery on Lucius Street. From woodcut to etching, lithography to mezzotint, monotyping to mokulito, the variety and diversity of printmaking techniques makes it a near endlessly explorable art form, and one that has defined trends and tastes for centuries. As a practice and craft, it owes much of this evolution to the dialogue that grew between those that pursued its practical use as a tool for reproducing text and image, and the artists that sought to exploit the opportunities this bore for their own creative expression. Today, the spidering and innumerable tributaries that the practice has taken, lend their successes both to the worlds of modern publishing and printing and to one of the most exciting art markets of the 21st century. Contemporary British Printmakers 2025 is our second collaboration with Delamore Arts, bringing together printmakers from across the UK, showcasing original works and exploring a variety of techniques that span over a thousand years of the artform. The exhibition will sit alongside our Spring Sculpture Exhibition featuring works of Abi Higgins, Maria Moorhouse, Rosa Wiland Holmes, Philippa de Burlett and Almut Woolard. The exhibition will launch on 6th June and will then run from 5th June – 6th July Thursday - Saturday 10 am - 5 pm
