My latest nine colour print is inspired by walks along the coastline – at low tide, peering into rockpools, shapes and forms create attractive images.

Want to know more about linoprinting? Would your club/society/school or college like to hear about the processes and techniques involved in producing lino prints?
Please feel free to contact me to discuss the options available. By providing your email address I will also be able to keep you informed of future workshops and events.

The image shown is a small section of a larger lino print produced by a previous student involved in a one-day workshop.

I am delighted to have had a number of pieces of my work selected for inclusion in both of Mascot Media’s publications, ‘The Elegant Fowl’ and ‘The Little Chicken Book’. Each of the books feature a variety of printmaking works from a wide selection of artists showcasing a wide range of approaches and techniques. Both books are available online from the publishers, who are based in Norfolk, as well as from a number of shops and galleries around the UK.

I was delighted to be contacted by The Church Communities, New York, USA who wished to use two of my lino print images in their quarterly magazine, The Plough. Catch of the Day and Morning Light were both used to illustrate an article by Nathaniel Peters. The work, and the article, can be viewed by using the following address: http://www.plough.com/en/topics/faith/discipleship/pursuing-jesus

Publishers of the Gallery Magazine took a keen interest in my work by producing a two page article as a preview to my solo exhibition ‘Between Two Shores’ at the Coach House Gallery, Guernsey. Information about my printing technique, with accompanying photos, were included in the March 2015 edition.
