Our keyholder members have had access to the studio since 6 July but Ochre Print Studio remains closed for Open Access and courses until mid-August. It’s the start of a phased plan of reopening the facilities.
I am making new work in Lockdown and reminiscing over the fabulous year I had at Ochre. I learnt so much there and it’s interesting how it is feeding into the work I am doing now.
We just had to say it. So many of our members depend on our stretched, dedicated NHS community in our everyday lives. Now, when we need you more than ever, you keep being there. Thank you with all our hearts ♥️
The studio remains closed until further notice but our members continue to be creative at home.
You may have read our previous announcement about Ochre Print Studio’s concerns related to the Coronavirus outbreak. Since then, this unprecedented situation has been escalating on a daily basis and we have been watching the government updates as they come in. The safety of our members and visitors remains a…
In the interests of the health of the Lockwood Centre community, we ask that you do not come to the studio if you have been to an affected Coronavirus area, or if you have been in contact with someone who has.
Calling all Ochre Print Studio Members …. it’s that time of year again and we are starting to plan our Annual Summer Exhibition!

Ten members of Ochre Print Studio took part in the 20:20 Print Exchange this year:
Kate is back in the studio😊Posted @withregram • @katealgerartist This is a handmade etching of Pewley Downs in the Surrey Hills.
.
We are so lucky to have all of this beautiful wild space on our doorstep. It was gifted to the people of Guildford just over a hundred years ago and is definitely one of the best presents ever.
.
The etching is one of just 50 and each one is slightly different due to the way that I apply and remove the ink to the metal plate each time.
.
The printing press is an absolute beauty. I think she was made before Pewley Downs were gifted, she weighs an absolute tonne and she'll give you one hell of a whack if you get in the way of her surprisingly long wooden arms.
.
I'm planning on working with her in the studio today. I'll be whispering to her politely as I hopefully put some pretty special finishing touches to one of my current projects...
.
If you'd like a Pewley Down etching, please get in touch for more info. They look pretty special when framed (scroll through my past posts to see one framed 40x50cm with a bespoke mount). Thank you and here's to the printing gods, the great outdoors and hugely generous gifts for future generations. @ Ochre Print Studio
