Limited Edition Print 'Morris and Kitty' by Paul Robinsion


This week we have been featuring British artists who have their art work published as Limited Edition Prints . The process of producing Limited Edition Prints from the art works of British artists is well established. The original artwork is first photographed using a high resolution, large format digital camera together with specialised lighting. The resulting digital image is transferred to a computer where the image goes through a series of colour correction procedures until the artist is happy that the colours are a true representation of the original artwork.


The production and sales of Limited Edition Prints have increased significantly in recent years. A key reason for this growth of limited edition prints has been the development of Giclee technology. This involves spraying ink from very, large highly specialised format inkjet printers which are used to create art prints and limited edition prints. Most limited edition prints promoted by Red Rag are giclee art prints.



Today’s featured British Limited Edition Print artist is Paul Robinson . Paul Robinson paints in a distinctive naive style. Inspiration for his limited edition prints comes from the East Anglian landscape with great expanse of sea and sky and the people who are found in the area. There are ten titles in Robinson’s limited edition print series including: French Lieutenant’s Aunty; Narcissus; Lady With Dog and Newspaper; Weekenders; Arthur always liked to share his Baguette; Rainy Day in Jetty Street and Ethel and Archie





Paul Robinson limited edition prints can be purchased from Red Rag Bath Art Gallery. For further details email the gallery or
