I have a Patreon page as a place to extend the content I share on social media, the content goes into much more depth about how my work is created and why I am making certain decisions. I also provide helpful techniques, tips, resources for linocut printmakers and share demonstration videos. Some of the content is available if you sign up for free and the more in depth articles and videos require a small monthly contribution.

Exhibition information

I’m most inspired whilst walking in the countryside and enjoy creating impressionistic linocuts from my scenic discoveries. Often, they are quite simple scenes of woodlands, water or flowers that are elevated by dappled light, weather, or seasonal colour. I cut in a loose, painterly fashion using a variety of gouges to explore mark-making. Often my prints have many layers, lots of texture and monoprinted elements which furthers the painterly feel. I aim to find a balance between detail, accuracy, and free expression to create uplifting or restful depictions.

Artist information

I have been a full-time printmaker since 2012. I am a member of the Oxford Art Society, my linocuts have been displayed at the Royal Academy, the Bankside Gallery and Mall Galleries in London, and my work sells to collectors across the UK and internationally. 
This will be my 10th year taking part in Oxfordshire Artweeks, I will also be participating in Bucks Art Weeks in June.

I have been teaching printmaking for many years and offer private lino workshops from my home studio in Bicester, as well as group workshops at other local venues, details can be found on my website.
