Leonie Auhl, Drawing and painting skills were encouraged in my childhood, honed in practical biology and geology studies at University and applied when teaching Science and Mathematics in secondary schools. Upon retirement a new world dawned. A summer nature drawing workshop led to part time Visual Arts studies and specialisation in copperplate etching and macro-photography. Since first exhibiting my works in 1997, Judge's Awards with commentary and sales in local and regional art shows have encouraged me to broaden and extend my folio in various printmaking techniques and processes. My preferences are now oil-based multiplate monotypes and hand-coloured linocuts
