About me
I am an Artist based in Edinburgh, Scotland, mainly working in drawing and print.
I graduated with an MA in Fine art in 2017, in which my practice focused upon the relationship between drawing and photography, however, in recent years I have become interested in the connection between photographic processes and printmaking.
My work centres upon screen-printing techniques and Linocut print. I often coat my screens with photographic emulsion and expose these to hand drawn images. This is all done in my little studio at home in Roslin, Edinburgh.
The unpredictable aspect of print, alongside my love of drawing, has resulted in very experimental work which I love. Each piece is handmade and one of a kind. I enjoy building up layers of different techniques and colour to create interesting images.
My work is mostly paper based, including cards, and wall prints.
