This is a screen print called Da Slockit Light, by Dave Jackson. I bought it at Aberdeen Art Gallery nearly 20 years ago, and thought it would be an ideal cover illustration for the magazine, which has a mjor piece in it about...stoves.Da Slockit Light was a mixed-media 'event' which popped up in Shetland at the Town Hall during the Folk Festival one year. Dave, an excellent guitarist, was often at the festival. But he has left Aberdeen and no-one in the art scene there has seen or heard of him for years.
I decided to use the illustration without getting his permission, in the hope that he wouldn;t mind and that maybe he would get in touch when the magazine was published. Can anyone help? He's owed a reproduction fee.
