Stencil/Blind Emboss
Artist Statement
I am a printmaker living and working in rural Cambridgeshire. The images I produce are inspired by nature and the living world around me. I use a variety of processes to hand-cut and carve printing blocks made of lino and/or collagraph which are then inked and printed in relief or intaglio. Where appropriate the image is further enhanced by applying stencilling using hand-cut stencils, and/or fine Japanese papers or tissue (chine colle). In addition I also make collagraph blocks which are left un-inked and printed under pressure to create three dimensional blind-emboss prints. These processes applied singly or collectively are used to create abstract and stylised images.
My prints are all originals and are either one-offs or small limited editions.
