I'm a graphic designer by (work)day and a linoprint artist at the weekends. Linocut has enchanted me since I first tried it a few years ago and I will happily lose hours carving out a new design. I love that linoprint combines so many disciplines, it's opened up a fascination with paper types and weights and tool sharpening and colour layering and so many other things I never knew I needed to know! For me, my prints are a way to study and capture the things I find beautiful. I'm inspired by the plants and mushrooms and birds that visit my garden, and the incredible views I get here in Surrey. I print at home, in whatever space I can make, with the company and hinderance of my dog.
