Working from her home studio on the Essex/Suffolk border Beth creates lino cut artwork inspired by landscapes and wildlife. The bold results of relief printmaking is something she has always been drawn to throughout her education and creative practice. Having followed a career in art and design from a young age, achieving a BA Hons degree in 2009, Beth has now been working as a full time freelance illustrator and printmaking artist for the past 6 years. Beth aims to capture the spirit of the natural world and the story of the landscape in her lino cuts, creating pieces with depth and atmosphere, developing techniques to capture light, distance and detail and pushing the boundaries of what is expected from lino printing! She hopes to draw the viewer in so that they can imagine being there and feel the atmosphere of the moment, evoking and capturing our emotional connection with our landscape. Beth’s passion for nature is also reflected in the eco friendly ethos of her business – using recycled or recyclable materials and supporting other local and ethical businesses wherever possible, sourcing materials locally or from U.K based independent businesses. All her artwork is produced using materials to prolong its life as much as possible. She use archival quality paper and light fast inks and paints, mounted in acid free mounts. She recommends displaying artwork away from direct sunlight, heat sources and damp.
