These
prints were originally commissioned by Aimee
and Monroe Price, a well known American art
historian and her lawyer husband. They enabled
me to buy a press and to stock up with plates
and other printmaking paraphernalia. They
possess three complete editions of the ninety
one prints. One complete edition is in the
Print Room at the British Museum where a selection
from it was exhibited. The complete framed
edition has been exhibited twice, in Southwell
Minster and the North Light Gallery, Huddersfield.
On receiving
the prints into the British Museum’s
Print Room Anthony Griffiths, Head of Prints
and Drawings wrote. “It is a most extraordinary
and impressive achievement and we are very
glad to have it in the department as one of
the major monuments of British print making
in recent times”.
While I was
working on the prints I composed a poem called
“From Two Lives”. Each print had
a religiously inspired meditation on the subject
and an account of something that had recently
happened to me. In this way I hoped to show
some relation between interior meditation
and everyday events.
I made twelve
complete editions of these prints and three
proofs of each, some of which were really
early states. I now have three complete editions
left and available, one of which is framed
and in part on show in this exhibition as
well as many proofs which are also available.

Works in numerous public and private collections.
During the last five years I have made many
drawings and paintings, both in gouache and
acrylic. Maybe I have been attempting to integrate
the demands of intellect and feeling.
At the back of my mind there has always been
the hope that I could paint large pictures
– like those I saw in Italy that tell
stories and decorate churches – recently
I have been producing them.
For a brief moment I saw seven of these large
paintings in a beautiful church during the
St Stephen’s festival. Only for a moment,
but a thousand years is also a ‘moment’.
“And now under circumstances that seem
unpropitious” ….. we carry on.
