Selkie Babe by Tamsin Abbott A limited edition numbered print, signed by the artist, featuring an image of her stained glass artwork 'Selkie Babe'. Selkie Babe is one of a collection of works made by Tamsin Abbott for her book and exhibition Wild Folk. Working in collaboration with writer Jackie Morris, Tamsin's stained glass illustrates and interprets folk tales whose themes of transformation echo the alchemical nature of glass. Selkie Babe illustrates Morris's telling of The Selkie's Tale. Combining painting and engraving, and working across both sides of the glass to create depth and atmosphere, the Wild Folk collection showcases a range of traditional stained glass techniques. Expressive brushwork and sgraffito reveal intricate textures, while diamond and stone drills are used to engrave flashed glass, carefully removing layers of colour to create delicate details and subtle gradations of light. Dimensions: 275 x 285mm
