I have become captivated by the prints of Barbara Jackson and now have a collection of 6, all purchased from Henry Paddon in Eastbourne.
What I really enjoy about her work is the way she represents light - much in the same way that I enjoy the representation of light in "great" photographic images.
The advantage of print making is, I guess, that you can just show the light in the when you want, whereas for photography you need the light to be actually present when you take the image.
The disadvantage is, again I guess, that to manufacture the light you want may need more skill than (just) recording what is there.
But for those who enjoy light (and a great deal of skill) look out for her work.
