    Albatross Print Studio 

    East Quay, Watchet


    2021 saw the realisation of an  ambition held since moving to Somerset in 2011. As part of the amazing, new East Quay arts complex in Watchet, fellow printmaker Sarah Ward and I opened Albatross Print Studio. All through my art career I have used open access studios to create my work, these have been vital, as I have never had a space where the large, expensive equipment I use at these facilities could be accommodated. But the travel and the need to take everything with me is restricting. Here in my own space I can spread out and experiment. Now entering our fourth year of operation we have built a community of member artists who come  to share the resources of a fully-equipped studio along with ideas, knowledge, collaboration and enthusiasm.

    East Quay opened in September 2021, housing contemporary galleries and a collection of creative and heritage businesses, artists and makers’ studios. Albatross is on the ground floor, opening onto the central, public outdoor space and next door to the café. Our other neighbours are Two Rivers, makers of handmade paper for artists and a geology lab for Geckoella environmental consultancy. Other artists occupy studios on the first level above us and in  shipping containers. 
    We offer open access as a resource for professional artists and a programme of workshops. We have facilities for intaglio, relief and silk screen printing. More news on our website www.albatrossprintstudio.com Facebook: Albatross Print Studio or Instagram @albatrossprintstudio.
