- Description: Barns-Graham's images are derived from acute observations of natural forms and places she had visited, pared to their bare essentials. It wasn‘t until her later life that she took up an interest in printmaking, particularly focussing on the art form from 1991. In this piece Barns-Graham pays homage to her friend and fellow St Ives artist John Wells, who died in July 2000. The egg shape that features here was a prominent feature of Wells‘ early experiments with abstract art. This shape seemed to attract Wells and others in the St Ives Group (including Hepworth and Lanyon), as it was both organic and abstract.
