Original art

I have a life-long passion for art and enjoy making my own original works.

Currently I focus on etchings and screenprints, having been an associate member of the Oxford Printmakers’ Co-operative (OPC) since 2009.

I plan to add pages to showcase prints for sale; for now have a look at the snapshots and let me know if you are interested. Prices generally are well under £100.

I also sell greeting cards of my prints. Please use my contact form if you would like to buy some – they cost the same or less as cards you can get in the shops! Or you can also buy cards from the OPC website. Alternatively, if you’re in Oxford, do pop into our OPC workshop just off Cowley Road where we stock a wide range of artists’ cards made by our members.

My contribution to the 2014 OPC Printmakers’ Platter

K Luddecke Chinon

One of my etchings – the castle at Chinon (Loire).

I have taken courses in introductory and further etching techniques with Rahima Kenner and a screenprinting course with Catriona Brodribb. I’ve also had a go at wood engraving with Anne Desmet.

I also have drawn since childhood and taken drawing lessons in Oxford some years ago now, with Anne Gingell and made and exhibited silver jewellery, including at Cowley Road Studios during Oxfordshire Artweeks 2006.
