Paul Croft received two major bursaries from the Elizabeth Greenshield’s Foundation that enabled him to travel to Japan in 1992 and then to train as a master Printer of Lithography at the Tamarind Institute in Albuquerque, New Mexico in 1994. This exhibition of drawings and prints represented a range of work inspired by his interest in all things Japanese, New Mexican Petroglyphs and his passion for stone and plate lithography. Paul Croft is a Lecturer in Fine Art (Printmaking) at UWA School of Art.
