Lindy Furby
I joined Edinburgh Printmakers in June 2009 on an etching course led by Alphons Bytautas. I had learnt printing many years before at Teacher Training College but life – climbing, work and family - got in the way of further development. I have been a member of EP for over 13 years, and have spent more and more of my time engaged in printmaking.
I have been a lifelong lover of the outdoor landscape. I have climbed, walked, camped, skied up and down, kayaked and swam, engaging with and enjoying the landscape in physically active ways.
My artwork is just a continuation of this, it is a part of my life. I engage with the landscape this time by sitting still, looking, contemplating and finally mark-making - usually watercolour sketches. This behaviour burns the landscape into my brain in a way that taking a photograph cannot.
