About the TutorKate Miller is a North East-based printmaker and the first NHSN Artist in Residence at Gosforth Nature Reserve. Inspired by time spent outdoors, her work captures both sweeping landscapes and the small, often overlooked details of the natural world.With over 30 years’ experience in printmaking, Kate specialises in linocut, a hands-on and accessible technique she loves for its tactile, expressive qualities. Her practice is rooted in observation, and she is passionate about encouraging others to slow down, look closely, and engage creatively with nature.During her residency, Kate has been exploring the reserve through walking, sketching and conversation with visitors, creating new work inspired entirely by the site.
