TREVOR PRICE

Trevor Price was born in 1966 and grew up in Cornwall. He studied Printmaking at
Falmouth and then Winchester School of Art. On leaving college he found work in a
London etching studio,learning the skills of
professional printmaking in the way of an old fashioned apprenticeship.

On returning to Cornwall, Trevor based himself in St. Ives. Then in his mid twenties,
his work began to change and develop.
Trevor has since returned to London, but has maintained the St. Ives base, from where he also still works.
The Cornwall, and chiefly St. Ives connection, naturally comes through in Trevor’s work.
Trevor’s subject matter is a reflection of his life. Some pieces are about the intimacy between a couple, and others show the normal obsessions of any man.
Trevor describes himself as an artist/printmaker, and not just an artist. It is the opportunity to experiment and the diversity of technique that draws him to the medium.
At the moment most of his figurative prints are drypoints of one form or another,
usually on zinc or perspex.
Trevor exhibits widely throughout Europe and regularly holds solo exhibitions of his
paintings as well as original prints. His work is held in collections including the Bank of England, Yale University U.S.A and P&O.
Trevor has won several national printmaking awards, and is an active member of the
Royal Society of Painter-Printmakers. He has also on several occasions been an
invited selector for the National Printmaking Exhibition held at the Mall Galleries in London.
