Creatures of the night

NOCTURNAL ENCOUNTERS, a new exhibition at St Barbe Museum & Art Gallery, Lymington, running from September 27 until November 8, will display a mix of new and earlier prints of the natural world by wood engraver Colin See-Paynton.

Self-taught, Colin began to make wood engravings in 1980 and soon established himself as one of the world’s most revered printmakers. His work is based on meticulous observation of the natural world, inventing complex compositions that link species and their habitats.

This exhibition mixes new work, focusing on a family of hares that made their home in Colin’s garden, and a selection of earlier work.
