ARTIST NOTES: South Australian Icons - Julia
Yes, I know she was born in Wales, but she’s ours, isn’t she? Our first female Prime Minister and our first red-haired PM. I think it’s ok to say that, because she allegedly called herself ‘ranga-in-chief’ (Is this true? I tried to check but could find nothing to disprove it.) I relate. I might not be a natural redhead but I’ve been one for so long I can’t actually remember what colour my hair really is. Julia’s time as PM was a somewhat fraught tenure, but there’s some things that can’t be taken away, including the magnificence of her legendary misogyny speech.
Hand coloured lino print
This print was created by carving the design, in mirror image, into a lino block. It was printed by hand on Stonehenge 100% cotton paper, and coloured using watercolour paints and inks. Therefore, although there are multiples available of the same image, each print is a unique and original artwork. The numbers on each piece refer to the edition size (to the right of the slash), which is the total number of that image that will be produced. The other number identifies the individual print. AP means the print is an artist’s proof, which is a stage in the development of the image, and may differ slightly from the final edition.
