Galloway’s Tinkler-Gypsies
A collection of quick rough sketches 6b pencil. I posted a off-set mono print a few days ago based on a large monoprint of two Irish women by Robert Colquhoun, I think it was done around the mid 1940’s. I don’t have any Irish women handy so I’ve used for reference the photographs of Andrew McCormick’s taken in the early 1900’s, in a book I have about Galloway traveller families. There is so much hardship in their faces, stances and demeanours, it’s that I would like to capture and develop into monoprints using Colquhou’s down to the minimum lines etc.
