Lizzie Wheeler
Lizzie Wheeler B.1996 in Oxford
Lizzie is a printmaker living and working in Oxford. She works primarily in linocut and woodcut, enjoying the process of stylisation and the element of craftsmanship involved. Her work pays close attention to colour and pattern and harks to the decorative art of the 20th century British printmakers who have informed her sense of design.
Inspiration for Lizzie’s work comes from the natural world, the creatures who inhabit it, and a desire to draw attention to the beauty and importance of wild places.
Lizzie works as a printmaking technician at the Oxford Printmakers Co-operative. Her work here has been a driving force for her own experimentation, combining different methods and endlessly playing with ways of creating texture and line.
Lizzie has taught a wide range of printmaking workshops, from her own studio, for art groups, at festivals, in churches, and more. Lizzie also offers private and one-on-one tuition.
