Stewart has been a Printmaker for over 30 years, & was recently selected for the 16th Graphica Creativa Print Triennale where the Jyväskylä Art Museum acquired his work from the exhibition. He also has works in the V&A Museum print collection, he has been selected for all 6 of the most recent editions of The Woolwich Contemporary Print Fair, with recent appearances at both the RA Summer Show & the National Original Print Show, winning the Great Art Prize at the latter in 2018 for ‘Alcala’.

Stewart is continuing onwards with his Tree Portraits series from his Dartmouth studio, which started over 4 years ago in London, before leaving for Devon in 2020. Initially inspired by the street trees of his neighbourhood, these moved outwards to the parks and the wilds nearby, quickly becoming a conversation about our lack of connectivity with the natural world. There are now well over 300 monoprints in this collection.

In the past 12 months he has created large-scale Joshua Trees from the Mojave National Preserve that have been destroyed by the massive wildfires of 2020 & 2023; prints documenting the ravages of Ash Dieback here in the UK; & trees from the banks of the Danube in Slovakia, that were photographed for him by fellow artist Eva Boda. Another collaboration with photographer, Andy Doughty, has resulted in archival prints of his ‘Old Man of Calke’ raising over £2,500 for the Woodland Trust

This series will continue to help raise awareness for protecting our environment, including donating prints for various progressive conservation/rewilding fundraisers in the UK & USA.

Stewart previously was a keyholder at East London Printmakers for over a decade, where he was Project Leader of the Mile End – Copperfield Road Studio Build for their move from London Fields. During his time there, he worked exclusively in screenprint, while simultaneously working as a media professional in the City.

After graduating in Fine Art at UCA Farnham in 1994 he joined Artichoke Print Workshop, where he specialised in Photoetching.
