Annemarie Blake

Born in Dublin and currently living in Somerset, Annemarie is a figurative and landscape contemporary printmaker and painter. Her work process often combines traditional printmaking techniques, etching, engraving, lithography, with drawing and painting, creating a sense of depth, layering and texture. She integrates detailed drawings with an expressive, abstracted approach.

Annemarie seeks to keep a real sense of spontaneity in her pieces, in an effort to capture the energy and atmosphere of a memory or a moment in time, inviting the viewer to be drawn in, to slow down, to make their own connection with the images, and to contemplate the wonders of the ordinary.

Annemarie makes some of her own colour pigments from natural dyes using plant sources - roots, berries, bark, leaves, wood, herbs and spices, minerals, iron oxide and other biological sources such as fungi and lichens, chalks and limestone for some of the whites. She works on paper, wood panels, linen and natural fabrics.

Her work is held in public and private collections in Ireland and England, private collections in France, Italy, Holland, Germany, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, USA, New Zealand, Canada and El Salvador.

All works are original and limited editions of prints, signed and stamped.

Lino, monoprints and woodcuts limited editions are hand burnished, polished and Illuminated.

All frames are bespoke, hand stained.

 Annemarie is currently working on a series of drawings, prints (etching and lithography) alongside paintings based on sketches done at  Glastonbury Festival. 

Annemarie began documenting , sketching and painting at Glastonbury  Festival on the invite of a wonderful man called Robert Richards. Robert worked behind the scenes contributing to making the festival happen. In 2013 Robert bought one of Annemarie's paintings - he then  invited and encouraged her to do works about the festival. This has been a fun  and developing gig. Thanks Robert.
