PRINTMAKER PROFILE

ARTIST STATEMENT

I am an artist and printmaker based in Sheffield.

After working in watercolours for many years, I took up printmaking in 2019. I started off making collagraph prints, then moved on to aluminium plate etching. I feel that this medium best allows me to express my fascination with light and atmosphere. I enjoy both the discipline of the process and the unpredictability of the end result.

I am inspired by the Peak District and I love nothing more than getting outside and sketching the landscape in all seasons. My watercolour and ink sketches often form the basis for my prints. I aim to capture the moods created by different atmospheric conditions in the simplest way possible, by stripping away any unnecessary detail to get to the essence of the subject.
