We've been hard at work for many Norfolk artists and photographers - and we've neglected our blog!
We'll soon be posting more regularly, and also moving the blog from Blogger to our website. There will also be a website revamp soon.
Keeping you up to date with what's happening with Norfolk Art Place

Busy working for Norfolk artists
The last few weeks have been fun - we at Norfolk Art Place have been very busy! The work we have carried out recently includes:
If you're an artist (professional or amateur) and you need reproductions and/or gicleé prints from any of your work; or you're a photographer and you want the highest quality inkjet (gicleé) prints, please get in touch with us by email. We'd love to chat to you and advise you free of charge.
- Canvas prints from some lovely Edwardian architect's plans for the client's house
- Some prints for one of the world's leading landscape photographers
- Some deep box canvas gicleé prints from large oil paintings
- A beautiful gicleé proof print of an exquisitely detailed and subtly coloured illustration - we were pleased that the artist had trouble telling the print from the original!
- A run of giclée prints that we reproduced from a superb monochrome line drawing
- Reproduction work and giclée prints for an artist who produces wonderful gouache paintings based on the style of old advertisements
- Many other fine art prints, mounted and unmounted
- Photography of some lovely rag-rugging work
If you're an artist (professional or amateur) and you need reproductions and/or gicleé prints from any of your work; or you're a photographer and you want the highest quality inkjet (gicleé) prints, please get in touch with us by email. We'd love to chat to you and advise you free of charge.

It's great to see busy Norfolk artists!
By Viv Cairns
Since I started our fine art print and artist services studio a couple of years ago, we have seen a big increase in work, and especially during 2012. Quite a few artists have been ordering good volumes of prints, and we get regular enquiries from new artists.
Many artists and photographers are struggling in these recessionary times, and so it is very encouraging to see that there are art buyers out there, and that artists have the confidence to order prints and to get out and sell them!
We are proud to be providing services to increasing numbers of great Norfolk artists and photographers, professional and amateur. Please have a look at our website at www.NorfolkArtPlace.com, and use the contact page to get in touch if we can help you with reproducing, printing and presenting your work, to obsessive quality standards. We're always happy to chat!

Open Studios 2012
By Bruce Cairns
I'm taking part in Norfolk and Norwich Open Studios again this year. We've been printing, stretching canvases, mounting, framing, hanging, printing cards, and mucking out some of the larger printing paraphernalia from the studio.
My studio was open last weekend, and again this weekend - Saturday 2nd, Sunday 3rd and Monday 4th June, from 11 am to 5 pm each day.. The details are on this link: http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Bruce-Cairns.ice?IArticle=7409
While you're in the area, I also recommend visits to some other excellent local artists. Pat Tinsley is also in Lammas (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Pat-Tinsley.ice?IArticle=7539); and Ronald Durban is in Buxton (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Ronald-Durban.ice?IArticle=7562) - both are well worth a visit. If you can get into Aylsham while you're in this area, also don't miss Kate Barclay's superb photography at The Black Sheep Shop (http://www.norfolkopenstudios.org.uk/The-Artists/Kate-Barclay.ice?IArticle=7486). You will also be close to the Aldborough Creative - http://www.wix.com/clai76/aldboroughcreative2011
Even if you're not especially interested in my photography but you are interested in large format inkjet/giclee printing, please come along and see me during Open Studios to have a chat. Our monster printer is in the studio, as well as a lot of work that I have produced on it, including very large canvases as well as fine art prints. I'm happy to talk endlessly about printing, whether you're a photographer or a painter. You can find out more about my approach to printing here.
One of the images I've printed especially for Open Studios is a 24x20 inch limited edition print of the image below. This type of image looks wonderful when properly printed on the superb Hahnemuhle Photo Rag 308 GSM cotton rag fine art paper.
For those of you who are artists also participating in Open Studios - good luck, and have fun! (It's hard work, isn't it?)
Into the studio now to do some hanging and organising. I hope to see you, if you can make it over the weekend!

Atrium Exhibition - Update from Private View
Following on from yesterday's post, last night we attended the private view opening of the Artipasto exhibition.
The Atrium makes a superb art gallery. It's flooded with natural light, and the organisers have worked very hard to set up the exhibition over the previous couple of days. The main atrium area now has gallery hangings all around the main walls, and the large hall to the right is set up with large stands and plinths. This exhibition is the Atrium's first, and there is no doubt that it will establish the space as a very creditable gallery.
The exhibition itself is superb. There is a large and varied selection of work from artists all over North Norfolk and Broadland - something to suit everyone's taste. As well as two dimensional work in every medium, there are many intriguing 3D works. The Atrium was packed with artists and guests for the opening viewing last night.
Our canvases are shown in the (poor!) iPhone photos below.
Artipasto Exhibition: The Atrium, North Walsham - open all over this Bank Holiday weekend from 10 am to 4 pm, Saturday, Sunday and Monday. See http://www.nwatrium.org for more details and for directions.

Big canvases in art exhibition at North Walsham this weekend
Three of Bruce's photographs are in the exhibition at The Atrium in North Walsham this weekend. They're large giclee canvases framed in 6cm natural ash. Two of them are 36 inch canvases, and the panoramic one is 46 inches. We printed, stretched and framed them.
There's a video of the large panoramic canvas being printed on Bruce's Facebook page: http://on.fb.me/IJcc1v
Please go along and have a look if you're in the area. Details of the exhibition are on the Atrium website: http://www.nwatrium.org. The exhibition is by artists from the North Norfolk and Broadland areas of the county, and is a taster for the forthcoming Norfolk And Norwich Open Studios. If you haven't seen the amazing new Atrium yet, this is your chance!
Bruce's images in the exhibtion are below.
