EXPLORING PRINT TECHNIQUES

After a career as a Graphic Designer, the majority of which were spent self employed, I'm now returning to my first love of screen printing as well as enjoying exploring other print techniques.

In 2018 I completed a course in Screenprinting at Arts University Bournemouth to see if it was something I wanted to pursue again, and really enjoyed getting back into it.

Having completed the course the options were limited without the relevant equipment. I then discovered Poole Printmakers and their studio facilities.

Poole Printmakers has given me the opportunity to develop my screen printing skills to the extent that I now also take the lead on screen printing courses there.

I exhibit and sell my work at Poole Printmakers regular exhibitions. These include exhibitions at The Shelley Theatre and The Russell-Cotes Museum & Gallery in Bournemouth. Poole Printmakers studio, Poole Dolphin Centre and Durlston Country Park, Swanage, Dorset.

I have gone on to exhibit further afield at The Red House Museum in Christchurch and Atelier By The Sea in Brighton. More recently I’ve exhibited at The Lighthouse Arts Centre in Poole and I was shortlisted for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition 2024.

Forthcoming exhibitions are featured on the EXHIBITIONS & COURSES page.

 I hope to see you somewhere in 2025!
