I am an Essex-based printmaker creating contemporary lino prints inspired by urban spaces, nature and everyday observation.

Alongside my own printmaking practice, I run relaxed and welcoming lino printing workshops designed to help people explore creativity through meaningful hands-on making. My workshops combine traditional relief printing techniques with an accessible, beginner-friendly approach, encouraging confidence, experimentation and creative development.

I currently offer two workshop pathways:

1) “Print & Make” — practical, creative workshops including greetings cards, textile printing and seasonal projects. Examples include cushion cover, lampshade, and tote bag printing.

2) “Print & Process” — more technique-led lino printing workshops exploring texture, composition, carving techniques and larger-scale prints. This could include reduction colour printing or jigsaw prints.

Drawing on my experience as an Occupational Therapist working in mental health and facilitating supportive group spaces, I aim to create workshops that feel structured but relaxed, where people can learn new skills, connect with others and enjoy the process of making by hand.

Beginners are always welcome, with progression pathways available for those wanting to continue developing their printmaking practice.

All workshops will be in a calm environment to explore this amazing medium and share ideas with others. I aim to give as much one-to-one support as possible during the group session.
