Profile
Being inspired and inspiring others is what I live for! I am a printmaker, artist, author and online art tutor. I studied Fine Art, Printmaking at Loughborough University and have continued to print, draw, paint, sew and create stuff throughout my career. I focus mainly on linocutting and block printing in my artwork and you will find a selection of original prints and handprinted products on my website. I am inspired by everything around me but especially nature, pattern and bold colours. I have written five different art and craft books. Two have been Amazon no. 1 bestsellers – Learning Linocut (2011) and Beginner’s Guide to Linocut (2018, Search Press). I love writing and have a new book due to be published in 2022. As well as creating my own art I love educating and sharing my knowledge through short online courses and my sketching membership Inspire. Look out for my annual #30daysketchbookchallenge starting on 01 Jan each year and my **NEW** podcast called Creativity Talks launching June 2021.
